Cromartie V. the god Shiva

A charming, easily read novel despite its akwardly long title. One of Godden's finest efforts.

A slight work which still shows what this legend can do

This is a slight novel which nonetheless shows the magic Rumer Godden, at her best, can deliver. Like many of her earlier works (Godden is still writing at the age of 90!) it mixes poetry into its prose with no effort at all, and fully capitalizes upon its exotic setting. Godden's characters are often surprising, quixotic or downright mysterious, but they never fail to engage. If you haven't already, discover this marvelous writer, and go to the library to read more (since many of her works are, very sadly, out of print.)
