Ambientada en la València de postguerra, més en concret, la de finals dels quaranta i principis dels cinquanta, la història segueix a Manel, Josep i Carmeta, tres germans del barri dels Orriols, orfes de mare que, després que son pare abandone la llar per enigmàtics motius, es veuen obligats a anar a viure a casa d’una tia, en el centre de la ciutat. La família de la tia, d’un estatus i poder adquisitiu molt superior al de la classe humil dels tres germans, es convertirà en un element important en les relacions entre personatges.Allí descobreixen un altre punt de vista de la ciutat i els ocorren certs esdeveniments que són causats pel seu canvi de vida i pel context que ocupen. Narrat amb l’entranyable veu de Josep, el germà mitjà, el relat conta la vida dels tres germans al llarg d’uns anys convulsos que coincideixen amb la pèrdua de la seua infància, els primers anys de joventut i, quasi de manera immediata, l’entrada prematura i forçada a la vida adulta a causa dels successos que els toca viure.Temes com el primer amor, els primers desitjos de la carn, la traïció, la picaresca, la moral, l’amistat o el dol ocupen l’obra sota l’escenari d’una València que travessa el seu primer franquisme.
