If I could summarise my perception of Yvonne’s life in a couple of words I would say “Absolute Contentment”.
TRICK OR TREAT? THE AWFUL DISCLOSURES OF MARIA MONK (1836)
When it was first published in 1836, The Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk caused a literary and religious storm in Montreal, and abroad. Why? Because the book was purported to be a real account of a young woman’s trials as an ‘inmate’ of Montreal’s Hôtel Dieu nunnery.
