"White Magic: A Novel" by David Graham Phillips is a fictional work written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on Roger Wade, a painter who inherits a fortune from his estranged aunt, leaving him with both wealth and a sprawling wilderness estate. As he returns to America, we see him navigate through new artistic endeavors and unexpected relationships that arise, particularly with a young woman named Rix, who becomes both an artistic muse and a charming presence in his life. The opening of the novel sets the stage for Roger's character and his recent inheritance, establishing him as a talented painter returning from Paris with aspirations to build a career in America. We see his first encounter with Rix unfold amidst a stormy evening, where they share chocolate and engage in spirited dialogue about art, love, and societal expectations. Their chemistry is palpable, suggesting a deeper connection as they explore themes of ambition, societal roles, and the nature of attraction. This initial meeting introduces Rix’s vibrant personality and hints at the complexities their relationship will face as the story progresses. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
