Focuses on the life of the Guarditas family as representatives of Uruguay's middle class. Shows their house; the father, Manuel, leaving for his work as a woolbroker; the boy at school; the girl doing her homework; the maid cleaning the house; and the mother working in the garden. Gives a very good impression of what middle-class life was like in Montevideo in the 1940's. (Jane M. Loy, Latin American Research Review, vol.12 no.3, 1977)
