      The novel paints a vivid picture of the Argentine upper class's decadence at the end of the 19th century through the life of Andrés, a wealthy estanciero. It explores themes of moral decay and societal directionlessness, reflecting the detrimental impact of the ruling oligarchy on national progress. Adhering to naturalist principles, Cambaceres delivers a unique literary critique that resonates with social change and artistic vision, making it essential for studies of Hispanic American narrative and issues like gender and nation-building.
