Inhaltsangabe

The work takes the form of a monologue by a woman, identified only as G.H., telling of the crisis that ensued the previous day after she crushed a cockroach in the door of a wardrobre. When the book opens, G.H., a well-to-do resident of a Rio de Janeiro penthouse, reminisces on what had happened to her the previous day, when she decided to clean out the room occupied by the maid, who had just quit. "Before I entered the room, what was I?" G.H. asks. "I was what others had always seen me be, and that was the way I knew myself."
