Carrie Meeber, a young girl from a small town, stepped off the train in the bustling city of Chicago. She was taken aback; the giant structures, the endless sea of people, the clamor and hustle were unlike anything she had ever experienced. She was a fish out of water, with a burning desire to make a future that was beyond a small-town life.

Amory Blaine, once the embodiment of Princeton's privileged youth, drifted aimlessly through the bustling streets of post-war New York City. He had lost his fortune, his status, and Rosalind, the woman who had breathed vibrancy into his life. Poor and disappointed, he found himself succumbing to the menacing whispers of lost youth and slipping away from the embraced illusions of grandeur. His heart was still burdened by the earthy scent of Rosalind and his mind still echoed her melodious laughter, yet he knew he had to let go. After a final flicker of her image, he humbly accepted his existence on this side of paradise.
