From 1929 to 1997, Rumer Godden published novels, biographies, children's books, and poetry, including Black Narcissus, The Lady and the Unicorn, A Fugue in Time, and The River. In the first collection devoted to this important transnational writer, the essays uncover Godden's significance as a writer who experimented with narrative and interrogated her own uncertain position as an author representing such nomadic Others as gypsies or taking up the displacements brought about by international conflict
