Summary

La novela que consagró a Claudia Piñeiro y que presenta un cuadro implacable de la decadencia social de la Argentina del cambio de siglo.  

Detrás de las altas paredes perimetrales, más allá de los portones reforzados por barreras y flanqueados por garitas de vigilancia, se encuentra Altos de la Cascada. Afuera, la ruta, la barriada popular de Santa María de los Tigrecitos, la autopista, la ciudad, el resto del mundo. 

En Altos de la Cascada viven familias que llevan un mismo estilo de vida y que quieren mantenerlo cueste lo que cueste. Allí, en el country, un grupo de amigos se reúne semanalmente lejos de las miradas de sus hijos, sus empleadas domésticas y sus esposas, quienes, excluidas del encuentro varonil, se autodenominan, bromeando, "las viudas de los jueves". Pero una noche la rutina se quiebra y ese hecho permite descubrir, en un país que se desmorona, el lado oscuro de una vida "perfecta".

Critic reviews

"Una novela coral, sólida y solvente, con un agudísimo retrato psicológico y social, no sólo de la Argentina de hoy sino del mundo a comodado occidental." (Rosa Montero)
