| Description | Marina Warner's historiographic metafiction The Leto Bundle(2002) is examined as a gendered trajectory of exile. The mythical Leto living to see thousands of years assumes the role of different female characters in different historical periods, but all of them compelled to live as exiles in search of a new home. |
