- Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk

Manchester, Pemberton's of Manchester. Paperback. 96p. A softcover booklet in very good condition. Edges lightly worn and tanned; small chip in spine. Otherwise, text clean and binding tight. Undated; circa 1930s. Canadian ex-nun Maria Monk's memoir about sexual immorality and infanticide in Catholic convents is considered by scholars to be an anti-Catholic fabrication. Her story was first published just two years after the Ursuline Convent Riots, the peak event of the mid-1800s anti-Catholic fervor in North America; ex-convent narratives were a popular genre at the time. Very Good .
