High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Venus in the Cloister or The Nun in her Smock, known in the original French as Vnus dans le clotre, ou la Religieuse en chemise (1683) is a work of erotic fiction by the "Abb du Prat," which is a pseudonym for an unknown author. Candidates for whom this might be include Jean Barrin (1640 - Rennes - 7/9/1718 Nantes ) and Franois de Chavigny de la Bretonnire. It was translated into English in the same year of the original French edition. Another translation by Robert Samber was published in London in October 1724 by Edmund Curll (1675-1747).
