About this book

´The Monk´ is a frightening, erotic, horror story about Ambrosio, a monk torn between his vows to God and the temptations of the Devil. This is a gripping, gothic tale about greed, pride, and lust, as Ambrosio battles with his inner demons. Written by English novelist Matthew Lewis at the age of 19, 'The Monk' (1796) marked a turning point in gothic literature with its focus on horror, violence, and lust. It proved hugely successful with the public and made him an overnight success despite widespread condemnation at the time. The book continues to influence writers and shock audiences to this day and will delight anyone interested in venturing out into grittier reading territory.
