Argentina is the novel’s main setting. Tomás was born and raised in the town of La Plata. He eventually moved to Buenos Aires to attend college. Facts from Argentina’s turbulent history play a major role in the story, as the characters become involved in the conflict between the government and rebels. The novel occasionally alludes to the fact that political instability in Argentina has often been partly caused by unjust intervention by the United States.
