Book
Paperback. Condition: Fine. With an Introduction by Kathryn White. Prepare to be shocked. This novel, written in 1796, is a Gothic festival of sex, magic and ghastly, ghostly violence rarely seen in literature. The Monk is remarkably modern in style and tells a breathless tale of temptation, imprisonment and betrayal. Matthew Lewis recounts the downfall of Ambrosio, the holier-than-thou monk seduced within the walls of a Madrid abbey until he heads for the utter corruption of the soul. Meanwhile, two sets of young lovers are thwarted and the reader thrills to pursuits through the woods by bandits and is chilled by the spectre of nuns imprisoned in vermin-ridden and skeleton-crowded vaults. Late Eighteenth Century audiences were polarised in opinion as to the novel's merits. Lord Byron and the Marquis de Sade were impressed by Lewis's daring, while Coleridge warned parents against The Monk's suitability for their sons or daughters, describing the novel as 'poison for youth. If you want a novel that still terrifies, over two hundred years after it was written, there is none finer than The Monk.

If you want a novel that still terrifies, over two hundred years after it was written, there is none finer than The Monk. AUTHOR Matthew Lewis (1775 - 1818) is an English writer remembered for his novel. 'The Monk'. Although not totally original, having been influenced by the writings of Ann Radcliffe and Hugh Walpole, 'The Monk' has nevertheless maintained its place in the early examples of Gothic horror, shocking its readers, and causing Jane Austen to send it up in 'Northanger Abbey'. Set in the sinister monastery of the Capuchins in Madrid, The Monk is a violent tale of ambition, murder and incest.
