Adventures of Eovaai | 
(1736) Set in a time before the world was remade for Adam's arrival, this is the story of the princess Eovaai who is deceived by an evil counselor and loses her kingdom and very nearly her Virtue. It's a strange book that lurches from utopian treatise to Arabian Nights pastiche to amatory-fiction shenanigans, with occasional flashes of brilliance and humor (both intentional and un-) and a generous serving of WTF?!?
