About This Book

La narración sigue las vicisitudes sociales y familiares alrededor de una rama casi extinguida de la aristocracia española, desde la decadencia de su palacio urbano hasta la modesta finca de sus últimos representantes. A través de escenas costumbristas, encuentros en salones y episodios rurales, se presentan personajes que encarnan el orgullo, la hipocresía y la nostalgia de una clase en transformación; el relato alterna humor satírico y melancolía para explorar el choque entre apariencias y realidades, las estrategias de prestigio social y la pérdida de herencia y autoridad.
