The story centers around Doctor Rómulo Pedraza, an affluent Argentine lawyer and businessman who balances his lavish lifestyle with the struggles of maintaining his family's social status. As the narrative unfolds, it explores themes of wealth, family dynamics, and social aspirations within the context of early 20th-century Argentina. The opening portion of the novel introduces us to Doctor Pedraza through the lens of a narrator who has encountered him during a period of financial uncertainty. The narrator describes the doctor as a man of high social standing, deeply involved in both familial obligations and business ventures aimed at sustaining his lifestyle. We learn about his family, including his elegant wife, Doña Zoila, and their six daughters, who are all part of this intricate family dynamic. The narrative touches upon the societal changes that have transformed the expectations and roles of women, while subtly hinting at the financial burdens weighing on the family as they navigate the complexities of wealth and reputation in Buenos Aires.
