After the untimely death of his daughter, Paul Raymond reflects on his life. Raymond grew to have a fabulously successful career as an erotica magnate that would make him the richest man in Britain. However, for all his material success, Paul's appetites mess up his personal life, such as alienating his wife with his philandering. Furthermore, even as he challenged his society's sexual mores, Paul's relationship with his daughter proves troublingly problematic as she came of age. Paul gradually comes to realize that his proclivities have impoverished him in ways that mere money cannot address.
