Sumario:A chapter of the book "The Semiotics of a Bourgeois Society: An Analysis of the "Aguafertes Porteñas" is presented. It offers an analysis of the essays of Roberto Arlt included in "Aguafertes Porteñas." It demonstrates that many of the actions of the characters in Arlt's essays imitate the actions of the wealthier segments of society by buying the trappings of capitalism or by participating in its hypocrisy. It notes that in Arlt's essays, marriage appears to be linked to economic well being for middle class women.
