The story follows the life of a young woman named Editha Channing, who is trapped in a loveless marriage to a wealthy man named Arthur. Editha longs for the freedom to pursue her own passions, but finds herself stifled by the expectations of society and her husband's controlling nature.As the story unfolds, Editha becomes increasingly disillusioned with her life and begins to question her own identity. She finds solace in the company of a young artist named Lawrence, who encourages her to explore her own creativity and ambitions. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Lawrence is also married, and Editha must navigate her own moral compass as she grapples with her feelings for him.Throughout the novel, Diehl explores themes of love, marriage, and the struggle for self-expression in a society that values conformity above all else.
