God

"God" is a deeply personal and intellectual exploration of faith, spirituality, and the search for meaning by the renowned critic and writer John Middleton Murry. Conceived as an "autobiography of a mind," this work documents Murry's departure from traditional Christian orthodoxy and his subsequent quest to define a new, more immediate relationship with the divine. Through a blend of philosophical inquiry and mystical reflection, the author examines the evolution of human consciousness and the intersection of biology and spirit.

Murry introduces the concept of "metabiology" to articulate a vision of life that transcends purely materialistic interpretations while remaining grounded in human experience. The text grapples with the profound emotional and psychological shifts that follow a crisis of faith, offering a compelling look at the early twentieth-century intellectual struggle to reconcile modern thought with the enduring human need for spiritual significance. "God" remains a significant contribution to the literature of religious philosophy, providing a window into the mind of one of the era's most influential literary figures as he seeks a path toward personal transcendence and universal truth.
