Which C.S. Lewis novel features the fictional kingdom of Glome?

Till We Have Faces features the fictional kingdom of Glome.

Glome is the setting for C.S. Lewis’s 1956 novel Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold. The story is narrated by Orual, a princess of Glome who later becomes its queen. Her account presents political conflict, family tensions, and her troubled relationship with the god worshipped at a nearby mountain.

The novel is based on the Cupid and Psyche story but changes its setting, narrative voice, and psychological emphasis. Glome is not part of Narnia, and it does not appear in Lewis’s science-fiction trilogy. Its invented culture and geography support the novel’s exploration of religious fear, possessive love, and personal identity.

Because Lewis wrote several works with imaginary settings, readers sometimes associate Glome with Narnian locations such as Calormen or Archenland. Those kingdoms belong to The Chronicles of Narnia, while Glome belongs exclusively to Till We Have Faces.
