This story depicts in a very accurate and honest manner the lives of the village and the city, during the era of transition and close interaction with Western civilization, based on the language of people through the use of their vocabulary, expressions and proverbs, and the liveliness of the characters. The writer gives to the description some of his own humorous and caricaturist spirit and shows himself to be a brilliant, cynical and sharp painter and an eye witness of social issues.
