Diderot es conocido por su erudición, su espíritu crítico y un cierto genio. Dejó su huella en la historia de todos los géneros literarios en los que intentó trabajar: sentó las bases del drama burgués en el teatro, revolucionó la novela con Jacques el fatalista y su maestro, inventó la crítica a través de sus salones y supervisó la escritura de una de las obras más destacadas de su siglo, la famosa Enciclopedia. También en filosofía, Diderot se destaca por ofrecer más material para el razonamiento autónomo del lector en lugar de un sistema completo, cerrado y rígido.

Forced by her parents to take holy orders, 16-year-old Suzanne is trapped in a monastic life and endures harrowing physical, sexual and emotional abuse. The depiction of her struggle for autonomy is coated in the mysticism and madness of her environment, as the overwhelming effects of power are laid bare. Diderot, a key figure of the Enlightenment, uses the novel to question the moral authority of the Church and pour scorn on its complicity in oppression and intolerance.
