Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)
Paperback. Diderot's The Nun (La Religieuse) is the seemingly true story of a young girl forced by her parents to enter a convent and take holy orders. A novel mingling mysticism, madness, sadistic cruelty and nascent sexuality, it gives a scathing insight into the effects of forced vocations and the unnatural life of the convent. This new translation includes Diderot's all-important prefatory material. Translator(s): Goulbourne, Russell. Series: Oxford World's Classics. Num Pages: 240 pages. BIC Classification: FA; FC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 196 x 129 x 15. Weight in Grams: 182.
