About This Book

The narrative follows Joseph, a man whose life becomes the focus of a spiritual experiment: through mysterious circumstances including the death of Lluellyn Lys and an apparent transfer or interplay of souls, he is emptied of past influences and animated as a supernormal vessel of divine power. The plot traces his transformation against a backdrop of materialist modernity, debates about science and spirit, and encounters with unseen intelligences and portents; episodes mix domestic scenes and psychical phenomena to examine faith, morality, and the possibility that spirit can assert control over matter.
