At the start of the novel, Dawn finds herself recovering from an illness in a New York boarding house, feeling isolated and disconnected from her family. As she reflects on her life and her tumultuous marriage to Peter Orme, a brilliant but troubled writer, readers are introduced to her witty yet poignant perspective. Dawn's sister, Norah, provides support while the looming presence of her husband in an insane asylum colors her thoughts. This complex backdrop sets the stage for Dawn's journey as she grapples with her chaotic emotions, her past, and the hope of reclaiming her independence, all conveyed through Ferber's engaging and vivid prose.
