A year later, it was released as a novella and won honorable mention in the O. Henry Memorial Prize competition. The story centers on the reclusive, lonely, deformed painter Philip Rhayader, living in a lighthouse in the remote marshes of the Essex coast. One day, a young girl, Frith, the child of fishing people, brings him a snow goose that had been shot. Although she didn’t know Rhayader, she, like everyone else, was afraid of him because of his looks.

Nevertheless, she overcomes her fear because Rhayader also has a reputation for loving all nature, and has created a sanctuary for birds flying south to live in until the spring comes and they head north again. Rhayader asks Frith to help him bandage the snow goose, and while they work, he tells her that it is a Canadian goose, making up a story about how it had lost its way in a storm and ended up off the coast of England. That winter, Frith comes regularly to visit the goose and Rhayader, but in the spring when it flies north, she stops visiting. Without them, Rhayader begins to feel his intense loneliness again and paints a picture of Frith as she looked the day she brought the snow goose to him. But each winter the snow goose returns and so does Frith. This goes on for several years, until one year neither of them returns.
