La novela retrata de una manera implacable la hipocresía aristocrática del siglo XIX, así como los pormenores de una infidelidad. Newland Archer se debate entre May Welland, la esposa perfecta pero predecible, y la condesa Ellen Olenska, que simboliza el riesgo y la aventura. El manejo de la ironía y el retrato de personajes han convertido a Wharton en la mejor cronista de un modo de vida opresivo pero fascinante que conoció de primera mano.
