Since his youth, sculptor Jocelyn Pierston has been obsessed with an unattainable ideal—the Phantom of the Beloved—who, changing forms, captivates him for only a moment before mercilessly abandoning him, leaving emptiness and suffering in his soul. His life is a series of passionate infatuations: he once asked for the hand of the tender Avis, then fell passionately in love with the wayward Marcia, later fell in love with the charming widow Nicola, and finally was captivated by the young Anne. Each of them became a temporary refuge for his ideal, but none could bring him true happiness.

Amid creative ups and triumphs in art, comes a series of personal disappointments and profound losses. Only over the years, having experienced new encounters, life's trials, and having parted with illusions and his creations, does Jocelyn find peace and simple human solace. His long journey is a story of searching for meaning, struggling with his own demons, and finding a quiet happiness in humility and caring for others.

This novel is a profound reflection on the nature of love, creative calling, and the price of a dream, which comes at a high price.
