Edith Wharton analiza e critica como os costumes e lazos sociais afogan as esperanzas de alcanzar a felicidade dunha muller nunha familia francesa de principios do século XX. Atrapada nun matrimonio infeliz, o divorcio parece impensable para a poderosa familia do seu marido, até que o seu namorado John Durham se reúna coa enigmática Madame de Treymes, a única que quizais poida dar o seu brazo a torcer. Cunha solvencia narrativa fóra de toda dúbida, a autora crea personaxes profundos e intensos, que se debaten entre o amor romántico e o amor familiar.
