«La religiosa» is the novel by Denis Diderot, published by S. A. de Promoción y Ediciones in hardcover (247 pages, in Spanish).
Suzanne Simonin is confined to a convent by her family's will, despite having no religious vocation. Her letters reveal the harshness of enclosure, the hypocrisy of monastic life, and the progressive loss of her freedom. Diderot turns this story into a denunciation of forced seclusion and a plea for reason and individual autonomy.
Volume 82 of the collection «Grandes genios de la literatura universal». The novel was originally published in 1796.
For those interested in French literary classics and stories about oppression and individual freedom.
