The story revolves around the experience of Don Morelos, a Spanish man imprisoned in a mental asylum in Buenos Aires, and his interactions with a young Swedish doctor named Stierna. The narrative hints at themes of madness, the impact of dictatorship, and personal struggle as Morelos navigates his mysterious past and attempts to escape his circumstances. The opening of the novel introduces the grim setting of a mental asylum, depicted as a desolate and oppressive place filled with unfortunate patients, including the well-dressed and composed Don Morelos. As Stierna learns about Morelos's history—marked by tragic love and violent conflict—he becomes increasingly intrigued and empathetic towards him. Their relationship develops amidst a backdrop of political turmoil, as Stierna discovers hints of a dark conspiracy involving Morelos and the manipulative regime of Rosas. The tension builds as Stierna becomes determined to help Morelos escape, setting the stage for further conflict and adventure in the narrative.
