Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

`what distinguishes The Monk from a whole raft of lesser imitations is thequality of the storytelling ... There's always a danger of bathos in narrativeswhere horror is piled on horror ... Lewis avoids that pitfall by judicious useof humour. He also writes with great visual immediacy. Lewis has a remarkableunderstanding of human psychology. The Monk is a stunning read. It was published200 years ago. I hope this article is not the only celebration of thatbicentenary.'Simon Brett, The Sunday Times
