Evelyn Underhill’s The Grey World is an unusual story, with a remarkable narrative, set in late 19th- and early 20th-century England. A human drama unfolds in which she interweaves the tale of a boy’s soul that transitions between two dimensions, the world of the living, and a Grey World—of the dead.
Evelyn Underhill (1875-1941) was a renowned English author, educated at King’s College for Women, London, and was Upton Lecturer on the Philosophy of Religion at Manchester College, Oxford from 1921 to 1922. Between 1902 and 1940 she authored many works, but is most noted for the books she produced on various aspects of mysticism. Among her writings are The Grey World (1904), Mysticism (1911), The Mystic Way (1913), Practical Mysticism (1915), The Essentials of Mysticism (1920), The Life of the Spirit and the Life of Today (1922), Concerning the Inner Life (1926), Man and the Supernatural (1927), and The House of the Soul (1929). The Grey World from Scriptoria Books, is an authentic reproduction of the 1904 William Heinemann publication. It has been transcribed word for word and formatted for print and digital media.
