About Monica Baldwin

Monica Baldwin

Monica Baldwin

Monica Baldwin (1893-1975) was a niece of British Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin. She is chiefly of interest because after spending twenty-eight years in a closed order of nuns (she entered in 1914, a few months before the outbreak of World War I), she left the convent in the middle of World War II, entering a world changed beyond belief from the one she had left. In the intervening period, she had not read a newspaper, seen a photograph or heard the radio. She published a memoir, I Leap Over the Wall: Contrasts and impressions after twenty-eight years in a convent , in 1950 and a debut novel The Called and the Chosen in 1957. In the 1960s she lived on Alderney in the Channel Islands She died of an overdose in a home to care for the elderly in 1975. [ citation needed ] ,
