The story of Fabian Vas, from Witless Bay, Newfoundland, 1911. At age 20, Fabian is working at a boat factory and taking a correspondence course in bird painting.

Then his father leaves on a long hunting expedition, his mother takes up with the lighthouse keeper, and Fabian's world loses its bearings.
