Copertina di Jennie Batchelor & Megan Hiatt: Histories of Some of the Penitents in the Magdalen House (ePUB)

First published in 1759, this novel aims to promote the cause of the Magdalen House, a charity which sought to rehabilitate prostitutes by fitting them for a life of virtuous industry. It challenges long-standing prejudices against prostitutes by presenting them as victims of inadequate education, male libertinism and sexual double standards.
