They are dependent on the local English agent of Empire, Mr Dean; but his charm and insolent candour are disconcerting.

Virago The River Godden Rumer
Harriet is caught between two worlds: her older sister is no longer a playmate, her brother is still a little boy. And the comforting rhythm of her Indian childhood - the sounds of the jute factory, the colourful festivals that accompany each season and the eternal ebb and flow of the river on its journey to the Bay of Bengal - is about to be shattered by a tragic event. Intense, vivid, and with a dark undertow, The River is a poignant portrait of the loss of a young girl's innocence

Virago Thursday's Children Godden Rumer
Doone Penny is a child with passion, and a gift - he is a born dancer, a ballet genius in the making. But though others may recognise the flame that burns in Doone, there is little encouragement from his family. His mother agonises over his pretty sister Crystal, also a dancer and full of self-regard. His father can't countenance his son dancing for a living, and his brothers dismiss him as a cissy. But Doone has ambition, tenacity and endurance beyond his years, and there is a fairytale ending in store - earned the hard way. Rumer Godden's classic for younger readers is a thrilling insight into the harsh, often brutal but ultimately joyful world of the ballet

Virago In this House of Brede Godden Rumer
'The motto was Pax but the word was set in a circle of thorns. Peace, but what a strange peace, made of unremitting toil and effort.' • Bruised by tragedy, Philippa Talbot leaves behind a successful career with the civil service for a new calling: to join an enclosed order of Benedictine nuns. In this small community of fewer than one hundred women, she soon discovers all the human frailties: jealousy, love, despair. But each crisis of heart and conscience is guided by the compassion and intelligence of the Abbess and by the Sisters' shared bond of faith and ritual. Away from the world, and yet at one with it, Philippa must learn to forgive and forget her past

Pan Books The Greengage Summer Godden Rumer
The Greengage Summer is Rumer Godden's tense, evocative portrait of love and deceit in the Champagne region of provincial France, which became a memorable film starring Kenneth More and Susannah York • The faded elegance of Hotel Les Oeillets, with its bullet-scarred staircase and serene garden bounded by high walls; Eliot, the charming Englishman who became the children's guardian while their mother lay ill in hospital; sophisticated Mademoiselle Zizi, hotel patronne, and Eliot's devoted lover; sixteen-year-old Joss, suddenly, achingly beautiful. And the Marne river flowing silent and slow beyond them all… • They would merge together in a gold-green summer of discovery, until the fruit rotted on the trees and cold seeped into their bones…
