  • John ClelandAuthor of Fanny Hill (1748), an early English erotic novel. It is a well-known earlier example of sexual writing in English and is often discussed alongside My Secret Life for its history of censorship.
  • Frank HarrisAuthor of My Life and Loves (published in parts from the 1920s), another frank sexual memoir with a self-presenting narrator. Readers interested in the genre often compare the two.
  • Anaïs NinKnown for Delta of Venus, a collection of erotic stories written in the 1940s. It is a different kind of erotic writing, but readers who want sexually explicit literature written in a more literary style may find it useful.
