Description

The Monk: A Romance is a Gothic novel first published in 1796. It was a quickly written book from early in the author's career, and it was published before he turned twenty. It is a prime example of the male Gothic that specializes in the aspect of horror. Its convoluted and scandalous plot has made it one of the most important Gothic novels of its time, often imitated and adapted for the stage and the screen.
