Against the backdrop of nineteenth-century Dublin, a boy becomes a man: his mind testing its powers, obsessions taking hold and loosening again, the bonds of family, tradition, nation and religion transforming from supports into shackles, until the young man devotes himself to the celebration of beauty and reaches for independence and the life of an artist.
