I've included the enotes plot summary below; what's more important with this novel is knowing how to read it more effectively (and I am assuming you're going to read it rather than just get a summary.)

This is a symbolic novel; therefore the people, places, and things in this work have more meaning than simple plot will convey. A quick look at the four main characters will show you what I mean, I think.

Ralph is symbolic of our physical being.
