The soul of a bishop by H. G. Wells
"The Soul of a Bishop" by H. G. Wells is a novel published in 1917. It follows Edward Scrope, Lord Bishop of Princhester, as he confronts a devastating spiritual crisis during World War I. Plagued by doctrinal doubts, insomnia, and a sense that his Anglican faith has become irrelevant, the bishop experiences mystical visions after taking a mysterious drug. These revelations force him to question everything he believes and consider leaving the
Church entirely, even as his family remains unaware of his inner turmoil. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
