Heavy dependence on rational thinking in the last two centuries cultivated an opposition which had a tendency to search for a spiritual alternative. Mysticism that has been experienced before has proved itself as one of these alternatives and it has become an inseparable part of literature. Such authors like Aldoux Huxley in England and Peyami Safa in Turkey creatively used their imagination to con vey mystic experiences to their readers. These mystic experiences in their works attempt to compensate for the spirituality that has been lost in the perennial life struggles generated by the modernity. This article aims to bring Huxley’s novel Time Must Have a Stop and Safa’s novel Matmazel Noraliya’nın Koltuğu in order to analyse the ubiquitous sense of mysticism projected through the conscious loss of subjectivity and time.
