Summary "Si yo fuera rico!" by Luis Mariano de Larra is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story explores themes of wealth, ambition, and human relationships through the lives of its characters, particularly focusing on Bernarda Bonet, an embittered woman grappling with her unfulfilled desires and the societal constructs around wealth and marriage. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to doña Bernarda, a middle-aged woman living with her brother Benito and harboring feelings of bitterness due to her status as an unmarried woman. The narrative reveals her internal struggles, particularly centered around her feelings for Juan Puig, her brother's well-off friend, who unexpectedly inherits a lucrative fabric business. As Bernarda copes with the fallout of Puig's sudden wealth and her perceived loss, the stage is set for unfolding dramas involving family loyalty, unrequited love, and class tensions in a rapidly changing society. The opening portion intricately foreshadows the conflicts that will arise within this close-knit circle as different aspirations clash against the backdrop of newly acquired riches.
