"Following Darkness" by Forrest Reid is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around an unfinished autobiography of Peter Waring, a young man who reflects on his life, his friendships, and his experiences, particularly his relationship with the world of art and the influences that shape his identity. The book delves into Peter's introspective thoughts, emotional struggles, and his ambivalence towards societal norms and personal connections. The opening of "Following Darkness" presents a reflective Peter Waring, caught between the memories of his childhood and the present moment in Italy where he is staying. As he attempts to immerse himself in the task of writing, he finds himself instead reminiscing about his past, exploring themes of youth, art, and personal longing. The narrative is intertwined with encounters, such as the poignant memories of his friend Owen Gill and familial relationships that reveal Peter's complex feelings towards love and creativity. Through a series of vivid impressions and experiences, Peter navigates his connections and aspirations, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of identity and artistic expression throughout the text.
