Description:
Matthew Lewis's Gothic masterpiece, depicting a holy man slowly becoming entangled in a web of sin, The Monk is edited with an introduction by Christopher MacLachlan in Penguin Classics.
Savaged by critics for its blasphemy and obscenity, particularly since the author was a Member of Parliament, The Monk soon attracted thousands of readers keen to see if this Gothic novel lived up to its lurid reputation. With acute psychological insight, Lewis shows the diabolical decline of Ambrosio, a worthy superior of the Capuchins of Madrid who is tempted by Matilda, a young girl who has entered his monastery disguised as a boy. Descending into a hell of his own creation, Ambrosio is driven to magic and murder in an attempt to conceal his crimes from the Inquisition. The Monk was greatly admired by the Marquis de Sade, who saw it as a response to the upheavals of the French Revolution, yet it also reveals something more universal- the way violent and erotic impulses lurking within us all can break through every barrier of social restraint.
Matthew Gregory Lewis (1775-1818) was educated at Oxford after which he held a position in the British Embassy at The Hague. It was there in 1794, that he wrote the racy novel The Monk, under the influence of the early German romantics. Its controversial publication in 1796, due to Lewis' new status as MP, earned him fame and the book a great deal of popularity.
If you enjoyed The Monk, you might like Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto, also available in Penguin Classics.

Secure Mount that doesn't use Adhesives or Magsafe
Bought another phone mount prior to this one that relied on a sticky adhesive to attach to the back of the screen, which ended up falling off after a couple weeks (might be due to hotter weather in my area as well). This mount is much more secure due to actually attaching to the corner of the screen. The mounting stabilizers for the phone also work well and feel smooth - they are also wide enough to fit any phone. The mount also doesn't rely on magsafe, so it's compatible with androids without that functionality.
The bad reviews on this product seem to mention that it can potentially damage the screen, but I think that's only if you heavily overtighten the mount.

Love the T-la Phone Holder!
This phone holder is probably the best I have ever owned. It does NOT shake loose and it displays right where I need to see the phone. It is safe to use and a great size (I have a Note). I think this is really high quality and I am very happy with this purchase.

Charges well and is sturdy and secure.
Color: PINK
This has been working really well for me. I have it mounted on my dash and not the window and it is very sturdy. My phone charges well with this and it has never dropped my phone and doesnt wiggle with car movement do it is very sturdy compared to others iv had in the past. Easy to remove phone and put phone in without having to adjust size every time. Great for delivery drivers. I haven't used the vent mount and don't see the need for it.

Charging phone holder
Color: PURPLE
My man loves this. He says it helps when he drives incase he needs a different route and his phone is needed. It is easy for him to use and fits his cellphone well. It seems to be very durable and keeps the phone stable and locked in place.
