The story begins with an intriguing portrayal of a young delegate at a national political convention, who is unexpectedly swept away by thoughts of his newfound love, Alice. As the protagonist navigates his experiences in both personal and political realms, themes of ambition, romance, and the quest for identity seem to intertwine throughout the narrative. At the start of the novel, the central character, Albert Barslow, reflects on his role as a delegate while grappling with a sense of disconnection from the political fervor surrounding him. Struggling to find solace amid the chaos, he retreats to an art gallery, where his thoughts drift to Alice, his love interest, revealing his deeper emotional struggles. The opening chapters introduce other key figures, including Jim Elkins, who emphasizes a business-oriented vision for Lattimore, a town set to grow, alongside romantic tensions involving a young artist and her suitor. The foundation is laid for a rich exploration of dreams, relationships, and the tensions between personal aspirations and societal expectations.
