The history of the house, is intimately linked to the history of Argentina, as its author, Manuel MujicaLainez, uses the physical structure of the house as a metaphor for his country, this due to the constant changes that were being inflicted on due to Argentine Peronist regime, showing the rise and fall of a wealthy social class Argentina, through the vision of this old house, which is about to be demolished.
