Matthew Gregory Lewis

The Monk (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the shadowed cloisters of a Spanish monastery, where silence reigns and virtue is revered, darkness stirs beneath the habit. The Monk is a haunting descent into desire, faith, and the corruption of the soul. Ambrosio, a monk celebrated for his holiness, finds himself confronted by forces -both internal and otherworldly- that threaten to unravel everything he stands for. A journey into the heart of temptation, where the sacred and the profane entwine in a dance both beautiful and terrifying.

Autorenporträt

Matthew Gregory Lewis (1775-1818) was a British novelist, playwright, and politician, best known for his early contributions to Gothic literature. He published The Monk at the age of 19, scandalizing Victorian society with its bold themes and transgressive imagery. Nicknamed "Monk" Lewis due to the success -and controversy- of his debut novel, he also wrote plays and traveled extensively across Europe and the West Indies. His style blends the macabre, the supernatural, and the psychological, leaving a significant mark on the development of Gothic horror.
