Summary
Il protagonista, Gesualdo Motta, da muratore diventa imprenditore, proprietario terriero, marito di una nobildonna; da qui il suo conseguente isolamento, poiché viene detestato da tutti coloro che non hanno ottenuto lo stesso successo in termini di ascesa sociale e disprezzato dal ceto notabile che lo considera un bifolco arricchito. Il romanzo è costituito da ventuno capitoli suddivisi a loro volta in quattro parti corrispondenti alle quattro più importanti fasi della vita del protagonista: il matrimonio con Bianca Trao, il successo economico, l'inizio del declino di Gesualdo, la sua morte. Si tratta quindi di un romanzo che ricorre ad una tecnica per scorci: i fatti più importanti vengono isolati grazie ad ampi salti temporali. L'opera va inserita nel Ciclo dei vinti, insieme a I Malavoglia e a La Duchessa de Leyra, opere che affrontano il tema del progresso, visto dal punto di vista degli "sconfitti" di ogni strato sociale.
