The story revolves around the life of boys in a British boarding school, focusing on the experiences of young Steevie Greenfield, who is new to the school and faces initial challenges in fitting in. As he navigates the complexities of school hierarchy, friendships, and rivalries, readers gain insight into the vibrant and often tumultuous life of students at Saint Dominic's. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Steevie, who arrives at the school with a mix of excitement and apprehension. He soon finds himself at the mercy of the older boys, particularly Loman, a monitor who assigns him various tasks as his "fag." The opening chapters explore Steevie's struggles with bullying, his desire to establish friendships, and his interactions with other boys who either dominate or attempt to help him, like the sympathetic Pembury. The narrative sets up a lively atmosphere of youthful energy, competition, and camaraderie, while illustrating the harsh realities and moral lessons embedded within school life during that era.
