C.S. Lewis’s Till We Have Faces is set in the fictional country of Glome.
Published in 1956, the novel retells the myth of Cupid and Psyche from the perspective of Psyche’s sister, here called Orual. Orual is a princess of Glome, a kingdom portrayed as culturally and religiously distinct from the Greek world familiar from the classical myth.
The novel examines jealousy, love, self-knowledge, religious devotion, and the difficulty of seeing one’s own motives clearly. Its title comes from the book’s concern with identity and the “faces” people present to one another.
Glome is not part of Narnia. Lewis created it for this standalone mythic novel, which is why readers who know his fantasy primarily through Narnia may not immediately recognize the setting.
