In "The Fox", the tranquil world of two spinster sisters managing a farm is unsettled when a young man arrives to work. "The Captain's Doll" is set against the backdrop of Germany and follows a German aristocrat who begins an affair with an English army officer, only for the officer’s wife to appear. The third novella, "The Ladybird", continues D. H. Lawrence's examination of intimate relationships and provides a complementary resolution to the trio.
