Aldous Huxley’s acclaimed and gripping account of one of the strangest occurrences in history

The Devils of Loudun (1952) is a detailed psychological study of a historical incident in which a group of 17th-century French nuns were allegedly the victims of demonic possession.

In 1632 an entire convent in the small French village of Loudun was apparently possessed by the devil. After a sensational and celebrated trial, the convent’s charismatic priest Urban Grandier—accused of spiritually and sexually seducing the nuns in his charge—was convicted of being in league with Satan. Then he was burned at the stake for witchcraft.

A remarkable true story of religious and sexual obsession, The Devils of Loudun is considered by many to be Aldous Huxley’s nonfiction masterpiece.

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) was a British writer. His first novel, Crome Yellow (1921), established his literary reputation. He is best known for his 1932 novel Brave New World, a nightmarish vision of the future.
