Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk & The Nun; or, Six Months' Residence in a Convent

More about the book

This controversial 19th century book claimed to expose the secrets of the Catholic Church and the horrors of convent life. Written by Maria Monk, a supposed ex-nun, it tells a lurid tale of sexual abuse, murder, and corruption within the church. Despite its many detractors, the book was widely read and helped fuel anti-Catholic sentiment in America.
