Sylvia Townsend Warner transferred the story to Victorian England in her novel "The True Heart" (1929), though few readers made the connection till she pointed it out herself. Other literary adaptations include "The Robber Bridegroom" (1942), a novella by Eudora Welty; "Till We Have Faces" (1956), a version by C.S. Lewis narrated by a sister of Psyche; and the poem "Psyche: 'Love drove her to Hell'" by H.D. (Hilda Doolittle). Robert A. Johnson made use of the story in his book "She: Understanding Feminine Psychology", published in 1976 by HarperCollinsPublishers.
