The story appears to center on the life of Maria Dmitrijevna Kalifin, a woman who reflects on her past and her relationships as she navigates life in a somewhat declining yet aristocratic society. The opening introduces a range of characters, hinting at themes of love, loss, and societal change. At the start of the novel, we meet Maria Dmitrijevna sitting with her elderly aunt Marfa Timofejevna by an open window on a bright spring evening. They converse about various matters, revealing their personalities and the dynamic between them. Through their conversation, we learn about Maria's late husband and her children who live away from home. A pivotal moment occurs with the mention of Feodor Ivanitsch Lavretski, a character returning from abroad, which stirs emotions in Maria and hints at deeper connections and complications that may unfold as the story progresses. The interactions launch a tapestry of relationships marked by intrigue, nostalgia, and the underlying tension of evolving societal expectations.
