The Burdens of Sister Margaret by Craig Harline
Based on letters, this title tells the history of a 17th-century nun in a convent in Leuven and how her complaints - of sexual harassment, fears of demonic possession, alliances among the other sisters against her - led to her banishment from the convent on two occassions.Craig Harline is the author of numerous books on the history of Christianity, especially during the Reformation, including Conversions: Two Family Stories From the Reformation and Modern America (2011), which was a finalist for the Mark Lynton History Prize from the Columbia School of Journalism, and Sunday: A History of the First Day From Babylonia to the Super Bowl (2007), which was one of Publishers Weekly's Best Religion Books of the Year.
