Summary
A sun-drenched pastorale fractures when a hay-spun sylph, allergic to the fetters of a betrothal she never chose, slips between the satin folds of twilight and stuffs herself into the rumble seat of a roving artist’s roadster. From the hush of wheat to the hiss of celluloid, she hurtles toward a metropolis that chews innocence like penny gum, her heart ricocheting between the painter’s raffish smirk and the echo of a jilted farm boy’s boots stomping dust clouds down a country lane. The canvas of her life is repainted in nickelodeon flickers: she poses for an unfinished portrait that may become her arrest warrant, dodges a Keystone cyclone of creditors, chorus girls, and copper-buttoned suitors, and ultimately confronts the question every runaway muse must—does the frame make the girl, or does the girl shred the frame?
Synopsis
The mad exploit of a daring young country girl who falls in love with an artist and hides in his automobile to escape marriage with a country youth she does not love.
