The narrative explores Jacob's journey from childhood in pre-war England through his college years at Cambridge and into adulthood, primarily through the eyes of the women around him. Key figures include the repressed Clara Durrant and the free-spirited art student Florinda, with whom he has an affair. Much of the story unfolds in London, culminating in Jacob's travels to Italy and Greece. His eventual death in the war is poignantly conveyed through a depiction of the empty room he leaves behind, emphasizing loss and absence.
