The story is set in the English countryside and follows the life of a young clergyman named Cyril Maitland, who is known for his love of nature and his tendency to wander aimlessly through the countryside. Despite his unconventional ways, Cyril is well-respected by his parishioners and is known for his kind and gentle nature.The novel explores Cyril's relationships with the people in his parish, including his close friendship with the local doctor and his growing affection for a young woman named Mary, who is the daughter of one of his parishioners. As Cyril navigates the challenges of his role as a clergyman, he also grapples with his own personal struggles and the question of whether he is truly fulfilling his calling.Throughout the novel, Alexander paints a vivid picture of rural life in England at the turn of the century, and the beauty of the countryside is a recurring theme in the story.
