Plot Summary :
Both repulsed by and drawn to his mother, Paul is afraid to leave her
but wants to go out on his own, and needs to experience love.
Gradually, he falls into a relationship with Miriam, a farmer's
daughter who attends his church. The two take long walks and have
intellectual conversations about books but Paul resists, in part
because his mother disapproves. At Miriam's family's farm, Paul meets
Clara Dawes, a young woman with, apparently, feminist sympathies who
has separated from her husband, Baxter.
