About This Book

La narración sitúa la acción en una elegante propiedad veraniega donde familias acomodadas se reúnen y se desarrollan conversaciones, coqueteos y rivalidades entre jóvenes y adultos. A través de reuniones sociales y escenas de salón, distintos personajes —una marquesa y sus hijas, pretendientes altivos o serviciales, y amistades mordaces— ponen al descubierto tensiones entre deseo y convenciones, la vanidad y el anhelo de libertad. El relato combina observación costumbrista con episodios románticos que exploran los celos, el fingimiento y los juegos de poder en las relaciones sociales.
