Reginald Clarke is the most admired writer in New York, and when he takes the young poet Ernest Fielding into his studio apartment the boy is flattered and grateful. Gradually Ernest discovers that his ideas, his phrases and even his half-formed poems are reappearing in Clarke’s work, and that earlier protégés were drained in the same way.
