Once upon a time by a river in India there lived a little English girl called Ma Rumer Godden. The life of Rumer Godden, one of our best-loved contemporary authors, has been as eventful and dramatic... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Having enjoyed the works of Rumer Godden all my life I also enjoyed this telling of the story of her life, which in many ways is even more interesting than the novels she wrote. The only reason that I could not give this book four stars was because I felt that the biography did not cover the last half of her life as well and as completely as it did the first half. I recommend this book not only to those individuals who are as taken with Rumer's fiction as I am, but also for those individuals who seek to become writers, and those who enjoy biography.
