Nunnery Tales

First published in the Netherlands by 1890s booklegger August Brancart, Nunnery Tales is the story of a young woman who accompanies her mother to the Convent of St. Claire. Only she’s a he, his secret is found out quickly, and as every fan of Monty Python knows, in a Victorian Abby, there must be quite a few punishments (as well as rewards). Thankfully in this masterpiece of the period, no Sir Galahad comes along to spoil the fun.
