The story revolves around Harry Joscelyn, a young man in turmoil after feeling alienated from his family and home, whose journey begins following a dramatic conflict that compels him to seek a new identity and life away from his past. Harry's inner struggles manifest through his impulsive decision to change his name and embark on a journey to
Italy, hinting at themes of self-discovery and the desire for independence. At the start of the narrative, Harry Joscelyn, overwhelmed by anger and a sense of betrayal from his family, decides to abandon his past life and leave for Liverpool, where he contemplates his future.
