The opening of the book introduces Will Warburton as he arrives home, where he promptly interacts with his
servant, Mrs. Hopper, showcasing his friendly nature and some light humor about his travel. After dinner, Will engages in a flurry of letters that reveal various social connections, including his friend Norbert Franks, an artist whose romantic entanglements weigh heavily in the story.
