SamenvattingIn the mid 1600s, a 26-year-old nun and a French officer fell in love - an affair that would destroy them if it were discovered. It was as brief as it was intense, but the French man was pressured to abandon her. The nun, Mariana, never knew of his sacrifice and wrote him letters so raw in their pain and eloquent in their passion that they became an instant success across Europe when they were published in 1669. The debate over the provenance of these letters has waged for hundreds of years, but their beauty and intensity remain.
