The fictional land ruled by the king in C.S. Lewis’s Till We Have Faces is Glome. The novel, published in 1956, retells the ancient myth of Cupid and Psyche through the perspective of Orual, a princess of Glome.
Glome is a small kingdom near the imagined sacred mountain where the story’s central conflict unfolds. Its court, religion, political pressures, and neighboring lands provide the setting for Lewis’s exploration of love, jealousy, identity, and self-knowledge.
Till We Have Faces is not part of The Chronicles of Narnia. It is a separate adult novel and is often considered one of Lewis’s most psychologically complex works.
Readers sometimes confuse Glome with Narnia or with Malacandra, the name Lewis gives to Mars in Out of the Silent Planet. Those settings belong to different fictional cycles.
