ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
Lauren Groff's narrative follows Marie, a young woman of seventeen arriving from France at an isolated abbey in 1158 England. Faced with a harsh environment and her own illegitimacy, she navigates the complexities of the monastic life and the challenges of leadership among the nuns. The story traces her efforts to establish order and security within the abbey walls, grappling with issues of survival, authority, and the forging of a unique community of women. Themes of spirituality, ambition, and the strength found in female solidarity emerge as Marie shapes the destiny of her new home.
