The story unfolds in The Hague and revolves around the character Ellie, a young and delicate woman who is deeply involved in the social life and fashion of her time. The narrative explores themes of superficiality, the complexity of social roles, and the innocence of youth amidst a world of expectations.  The beginning of the book introduces Ellie as she engages in a lively conversation about fashion with her brother, Pim. They discuss her wardrobe choices and the latest trends, showcasing the mundanity and importance of appearances in their society. The setting is vividly described, capturing Ellie’s ornate boudoir and her essence as a charming, ethereal "vlindertje" (little butterfly). The dynamic between Ellie and her family, particularly her affectionate bond with her brother Pim, hints at deeper themes of dependency and attachment, setting the stage for the intricacies of their lives in the context of social expectations and personal identities.
