Michael Fane, a sensitive and searching soul, navigates the labyrinthine world of Edwardian England from childhood to young adulthood in this sprawling bildungsroman. From the cloistered yet vibrant halls of preparatory school to the idyllic spires and intellectual ferment of Oxford, Michael grapples with his mysterious parentage, the complexities of class, and the intoxicating allure of both innocent and "sinister" experiences. His journey is a quest for identity and belonging, marked by intense friendships, first loves, and an evolving understanding of the world's beauty and its darker undercurrents.
