{"product_id":"the-letters-of-a-portuguese-marianna-alcoforado-9781432594343","title":"The Letters Of A Portuguese Nun","description":"The Letters of a Portuguese Nun, written by Marianna Alcoforado, is a collection of five letters that were supposedly written by a young Portuguese nun to her lover, a French officer. The letters were written in the 17th century and were later published anonymously in France in 1669. The letters tell the story of a passionate love affair between the nun and the officer, which ultimately ends in tragedy. The letters are written in a highly emotional and poetic style, and they offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of a young woman who is torn between her love for a man and her commitment to her religious vows. The authenticity of the letters has been debated by scholars, but regardless of their origin, they remain a powerful and enduring work of literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
