Durrell's best-known work fused Western notions of time and space with Eastern metaphysics. Very little has been written about Durrell's work before the Second World War. With A Smile in His Mind's Eye, Ray Morrison seeks to redress this neglect.

There exists a world much like our own. One parallel to the Spirit World. People much like ourselves fight everyday to keep both worlds from plummeting into darkness. They are called Defenders. The Spirit World is divided into many smaller worlds, each which follows its own path and are vastly different from one another. When these worlds start straying from their predetermined path, what chaos could unfold? It is a Defender's job to stop it. Ryoku Dragontalen, one such boy, is thrown into an adventure to save both worlds. What began as one small task, to save his friend, quickly escalates into something much more. Where the laws are simply not laws anymore, he journeys alongside gods and many significant people, all seemingly with intricate involvement in his foggy past, to find much more than what they initially set out for. Follow Ryoku and his newfound friends on a journey through the Spirit World, packed with mystery, action, romance, adventure, and the sense of something untold as the very gods step forward.

This is a book of history, ethics, and philosophy. It is a record of teachings passed down through the generations from the East and the West. It contains the fullness of the sealed covenant established between man and the laws of the universe. As we evolve as a race, we take things out of our lives because we better understand who we are and what we have achieved. The divine refers to the laws of nature and the universe that guide us in our everyday lives. The creator that guides our everyday lives is not something that we should worship or pray to out of fear or love; it is something that remains unseen and works in natural forces to explain all the events that happen on Earth. It is merely a force and it is not necessary to belong to a group to experience the light. The path to the light is straight and broad. The creator of the universe is a divine and intellectual force, by which all things came into being. The sealed covenant is a pact between all of humanity to the world around us and the universal laws that guide our everyday lives to come together and love one another and come to make the world a better place for all people. This shall usher in the evolution of religious traditions and humanity to a new age of prosperity.

The “virtuoso” author’s memoir of his spiritual journey with famed Taoist philosopher Jolan Chang (The New York Times). Beginning with their first meeting over lunch at Lawrence Durrell’s Provencal home, Durrell and Jolan Chang—renowned Taoist philosopher and expert on Eastern sexuality—developed an enduring relationship based on mutual spiritual exploration. Durrell’s autobiographical rumination on their friendship and on Taoism recounts the author’s existential ponderings, starting with his introduction to the mystical and enigmatic “smile in the mind’s eye.” From parsimony, cooking, and yoga to poetry, Petrarch, and Nietzche, A Smile in the Mind’s Eye is a charming tale of a writer’s spiritual and philosophical awakening.
