How do I find Christ in the people around me? This collection of excerpts from the writings of twentieth-century English mystic Caryll Houselander invites readers into the mystery of Christ's Mystical Body. Caryll was a modern laywoman known for her chain smoking, affection for stiff drinks, and cutting remarks, and was disillusioned by the lack of charity among Christians; but beneath this exterior and idealistic outlook, a deeply mystical soul was at work, seeking to find the face of Christ in the midst of her daily life. These short excerpts from her writings, organized by theme, offer a window into how Caryll met Christ at church, on the crowded streets of London, and on the subway—and how her insights can help us see Christ in ourselves and in others.

Caryll Houselander (1901-1954) was a British Roman Catholic laywoman: mystic, artist, wood carver, poet, and author of numerous books and articles in which she labored to reveal the presence of Christ in every person-Christ at work in the everyday. In her autobiography, A Rocking-Horse Catholic, she described herself as a joyful neurotic.
