The work of this German writer has been compared to that of Albert Camus, George Orwell or their compatriot Günter Grass. In the sixties and seventies three of his best-known novels were translated into Spanish, one of them is this one, from 1968.

This novel is composed of three long chapters. In the first, the protagonist tells in the first person how she suddenly decided to elope with a mediocre writer the one he had just met. Fascinated by her vulgarity, the limitations and inhibitions of the sensible and privileged life of a bourgeois woman and the mother of a happy family that she led also emerge. In the second chapter, in a long conversation with her father-in-law, who visits her in her new residence, recounts what it has meant his absurd adventure and the failure of his supposed release.

Y in the last, again at her husband's house, there are circumstances stronger than her will that lead her to get on again in her lover's car, who has gone to look for her drunk at her house, and in which minutes later both will find death. For his construction, this book was considered one of the capital works of contemporary literature, at least from the German one.
