The novel follows the lives of two main characters: Edwin Reardon, a once-successful author who is now struggling to make a living, and his rival, Jasper Milvain, a young and ambitious writer who will stop at nothing to achieve success. The novel delves into the harsh realities of the publishing industry, as Reardon and Milvain navigate the cut-throat world of literary London.
