About This Book

Drama en cinco jornadas ambientado en la vida social de Madrid, que muestra cómo un hogar acomodado y su círculo de amistades mezquinan ambiciones políticas, escándalos financieros y aspiraciones sociales. Las escenas alternan salones elegantes y estancias privadas donde conversaciones ostensiblemente ligeras descubren corrupción, oportunismo y tensiones generacionales. A través de intrigas, compromisos matrimoniales y manejos públicos, la obra confronta la apariencia de respetabilidad con la vulnerabilidad moral de sus personajes, usando el diálogo y la escena para desenmascarar hipocresías y desajustes sociales.
