This autobiographical novel portrays life in the famous Colegio Nacional of Buenos Aires, where the individuals who would lead Argentina during the nineteenth century developed alongside those who would later be considered the losers of their generation. As soon as it was published in 1884, this novel became a timeless Latin American literary classic thanks to its difficult simplicity and intimacy, and to its portrayal of the first generation of Latin Americans who were fully aware of their independence from Spain.

Esta novela autobiogr�fica refleja la vida en el famoso Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires, donde se formar�a tanto la clase pol�tica que dirigi� a Argentina durante el siglo XIX como aquellos que m�s tarde ser�an considerados los perdedores de su generaci�n. Desde su primera edici�n en 1884, esta novela se convirti� en un cl�sico de la narrativa latinoamericana de todos los tiempos gracias a su dif�cil sencillez e intimismo, as� como al ajustado retrato que se realiza en sus p�ginas de la primera generaci�n de americanos que es totalmente consciente de su independencia de Espa�a.
