The narrative revolves around George Heriot, a lawyer, and his unexpected admiration for a young actress, Mamie Cheriton, as they navigate the complexities of ambition, love, and disappointment in their respective lives. The introductory portion sets the stage for Heriot’s introspection about his own life choices, the loneliness he feels during vacations, and his out-of-the-blue reunion with an old friend, Dick Cheriton, who is now a hotelier and father to Mamie. The opening of the book introduces the reader to Heriot's mundane holiday experience at a dull boarding establishment in Eastbourne, where he grapples with thoughts of his past and unfulfilled ambitions. His encounter with Dick leads to revelations about Mamie, who aspires to be an actress, a dream that her father supports despite his own regrets about abandoning his artistic ambitions. As Heriot observes Mamie's passion and determination, feelings of affection and concern for her future aspirations begin to take root. This introductory glimpse sets the tone for an exploration of ambition against societal expectations, and the struggles faced by aspiring artists, particularly women, in the context of love and personal fulfillment amidst the backdrop of the artistic world.
