But when a huge crowd of dispossessed immigrants and homeless gather to see a mummy that has recently been moved, political pressure mounts, and the curator must reveal the mystery behind the locked door. To the passionate young man who has adopted the mummy as a figurehead, the curator explains that the once secret exhibit is a bundle of rare objects and intriguing documents that tell of the wanderings of an unknown woman named Leto. Marina Warner's magical new novel weaves together the story of this ancient goddess and eternal refugee with the drama of the curator, her new friend, and the people whose lives will be transformed by The Leto Bundle.<br> <br>As Leto moves westward across the map from her first home, she slips through time, reappearing in different guises and ever on the run. She gives birth to twins during a far-off era of civil strife, shelters with wolves, stows away on a ship, works as a chambermaid in a war-torn city, and, in a bombing attack, saves her daughter but loses her son. The novel sweeps from mythological times to the Middle Ages, to Victorian Europe, and then to the present day, when Leto reappears, still searching, of course, for her long-lost son. <br><br><i>The Leto Bundle</i> retells the story of the eternal refugee in a magical modern novel of huge scope and imaginative force.<br></div> 355941 2001 The Leto Bundle total:11|5:2|4:4|3:3|2:1|1:1| 11 38 26 2 3 0 false false Thu Dec 11 10:01:09 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 11 10:04:28 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Wed Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 27 13:21:53 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 27 13:32:31 -0700 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Tue Nov 17 15:14:12 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 17 15:14:12 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Sun Nov 08 22:38:15 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 08 22:38:15 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Aug 05 12:43:29 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 05 12:43:29 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jul 16 07:50:07 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 16 07:50:07 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Apr 20 19:05:30 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 19:05:30 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Feb 19 10:28:50 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 19 10:28:50 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jan 21 09:46:49 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 21 09:46:49 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jan 19 07:00:05 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 19 07:00:18 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 25 09:00:14 -0800 2008 Tue Jul 28 12:31:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 23 10:44:06 -0800 2008 Sun Nov 23 10:44:17 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Thu Nov 06 10:57:23 -0800 2008 Wed Dec 17 07:53:24 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Tue Oct 28 06:48:18 -0700 2008 Tue Oct 28 06:48:25 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Aug 16 17:42:16 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 16 17:43:25 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Jul 17 10:58:57 -0700 2008 Thu Jul 17 10:58:57 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Jul 01 14:19:46 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 06 13:35:10 -0700 2008 1 0 false false Sat Jun 28 13:12:28 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 28 13:12:28 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Jun 08 11:13:15 -0700 2008 Mon Nov 17 09:45:55 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun May 04 23:46:20 -0700 2008 Sun May 04 23:46:20 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=980823
