In 1632, the convent in Loudun, France, erupted in a scandal as the nuns claimed to be possessed by the devil, leading to a sensational trial of their priest, Urban Grandier. Accused of witchcraft and seducing the nuns, Grandier was ultimately convicted and executed by burning. Aldous Huxley's The Devils of Loudun delves into this remarkable true story of religious fervor and sexual obsession, cementing its status as a nonfiction masterpiece.
