| Summary | "Al primer vuelo" by José María de Pereda is a novel written during the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around the lives of the Bermúdez Peleches family, particularly focusing on Alejandro, the youngest son, and his relationships with his siblings Lucrecia, Hector, and Aquiles. The opening portion sets the stage for the family's dynamics, depicting Alejandro's journey and hinting at themes of wealth, health, and the burdens of familial expectations. The opening of the novel introduces readers to the Bermúdez Peleches household and the distinct personalities of its members. Alejandro is portrayed as the most robust and ambitious brother, while his siblings are characterized as weak and unfulfilled. The narrative navigates Alejandro's transition from family duties in Villavieja to the vibrant life in Sevilla, where he pursues business and personal aspirations, including a budding romance with a wealthy orphan. The story begins to unfold a discourse on health and vitality, suggesting that Alejandro's successful pursuits are tied to the pursuit of a 'pure' and healthy lifestyle, mirroring the familial ties and expectations he grapples with throughout his life.
