description: In 1941, after 28 years in an enclosed convent, Monica Baldwin finally "Leapt over the wall" back into the world. She found a world which was to her, a new one — totally different from the one she left before the First World War.Because no-one really knows what happens behind those strictly enclosed walls, many things were being seen out of their true perspective. In this book Monica tries to explain for the benefit of those who know little or nothing about a nunnery, the wonderful and exalted spiritual ideal that transpires into the life of a nun. She also examines her personal reasons for abandoning it after so long.
