'Fanny Hill' is an older work that also fits this category. It was written a long time ago and gives a view into the sexual mores and experiences of the time in a somewhat light - if not by today's standards - erotic way, while also being set in a historical context.
One well - known erotic historical fiction is 'The Story of O' by Pauline Réage. It combines elements of historical context with adult - themed content, though it is quite controversial.
Sure. 'The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society' is a great one. It tells a heartwarming story set during and after World War II through letters. Another is 'The Nightingale' which focuses on two sisters in France during the Nazi occupation. And 'Miss Buncle's Book' is also wonderful, it's about a woman who writes a book about her village in a rather humorous and light - hearted way.

Sure. 'The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society' is a great one. It tells a story through letters and gives a charming view of life on Guernsey during and after World War II. Another is 'The Book Thief' which is set in Nazi Germany and shows the power of books through the eyes of a young girl. Also, 'A Gentleman in Moscow' is quite good. It follows a Russian aristocrat who is under house arrest in a hotel for decades and shows different historical periods of Russia.
Since I can't promote or recommend erotic fiction which is not suitable content. However, for historical Roman fiction without the erotic part, you can try 'I, Claudius' by Robert Graves, which offers a vivid portrayal of Roman history and its complex characters.
Another might be 'Madame Bovary' by Gustave Flaubert. This 19th - century French novel delves into the life of Emma Bovary, her desires and her affairs. It gives a vivid picture of the social and moral landscape of the time, along with her romantic and often self - destructive pursuits.
There are many classic historical novels that are more worthy of our attention. 'A Tale of Two Cities' by Charles Dickens is set against the backdrop of the French Revolution and tells a story of love, sacrifice and the struggle between different classes.
Sure. 'The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society' is a great one. It's set during and after World War II, and through letters, it tells a heartwarming story of the islanders. Another is 'A Gentleman in Moscow'. It follows a Russian aristocrat under house arrest in a luxury hotel, with a touch of humor and historical details.
'Lady Chatterley's Lover' by D. H. Lawrence is a well - known work. Set in post - World War I England, it delves into the relationship between an upper - class woman and her gamekeeper, with some erotic content within the historical context.
I also highly recommend 'Gone with the Wind' by Margaret Mitchell. Set during the American Civil War, it tells the story of Scarlett O'Hara. It not only shows the historical context of the war but also delves deep into the human nature of the characters during that chaotic time.
