One of the most extravagantly dark works of Gothic fiction ever written in English, admired by the likes of Lord Byron and the Marquis de Sade, THE MONK drew a firestorm of criticism when it was published in 1796. Contemporaries condemned it as “lewd,” “libidinous and impious.” “Lust, murder, incest, and every atrocity that can disgrace human nature,” one critic cried, “brought together, without the apology of probability or even possibility." Of course, it was an immediate best seller. (From the back cover.)
