Synopsis
This book delves into the realm of domestic theatrics and the social "ideals" projected by women in late 19th century Spain. The author provides a collection of short stories that depict the lengths to which women are pushed to create the illusion of wealth and status within both their own households and local communities. Although the stories have a comedic bent, they also explore the underlying social pressures and constraints faced by women. Written with an ironic and critical tone, the author extends invitations to ponder how much has truly changed since the book was first published.
