A young war veteran, haunted by a friend's death, walks away from money and marriage to wander the world seeking enlightenment, ending up content and unknown while the woman he loved marries a rich man instead.

The dead look so terribly dead when they're dead.
The Razor's Edge, W. Somerset Maugham
