Warner stated that the novel which retells the story of Cupid and Psyche from Apuleius was "inspired by a creek running slowly" that she had discovered on a walk in the Essex marshes. The work was contemporarily praised for its "humour lyricism and tenderness" Orlando. In her writing Warner "shares as many similarities as differences with the high modernists who dominated the literary landscape of the interwar period" Plock & Murray p. 725. She was close friends with many of those modernists and alongside her novels published a collection of poetry The Espalier 1925. Warner worked against the societal norms throughout her literary career as well as in her own life: she was active in the communist party travelled to Barcelona during the Spanish Civil War to work with the Red Cross espoused "unconventional moral fables" in her Kingdoms of Elfin 1977 and lived as a married couple with her partner the poet Valentine Ackland for 38 years.
