Description
The Interior Castle is a profound and poetic work of spiritual prose written in 1577. This allegory of the soul as a castle guides the reader through seven concentric groups of mansions, each aligned to one of the seven heavens.
Addressed to women, this gentle and loving guide leads the female spirit through war, fear, and humility, ultimately reaching the central court and a spiritual "marriage" with God. Written by Spanish nun Saint Teresa of Avila, this work is considered one of the greatest works of Catholic spiritual prose.
First published in English in 1852, The Interior Castle remains a powerful and enduring exploration of the human spirit's journey towards union with God.
