Naomi Mitchison was born in Edinburgh in 1897 and attended the Dragon School and Oxford's St Anne's College. Her father was a distinguished physiologist, and her brother, the famed genetic scientist and essayist J.B.S. Haldane, was a member of the Haldane family. Naomi Mitchison (née Haldane) is regarded as one of the most accomplished historical novelists of her time. She married Labour politician Dick Mitchison, subsequently Lord Mitchison, QC, in 1916, and throughout their years in London, she was interested in social and political issues such as women's rights and birth control. Her writing career began with The Conquered (1923), a novel about the Celts whose creative reconstructions foreshadowed subsequent Scottish Renaissance writers like Neil Gunn, Grassic Gibbon, and Eric Linklater. Other books set in ancient times followed, the most famous of which was The Corn King and the Spring Queen (1931), which drew on her interest in myth and ritual as well as J.G. Ballard's writings.
