Don Simeón Torrente no fue un héroe de la patria, ni un gran político, ni un célebre escritor. La única oportunidad en que su nombre apareció en letras de imprenta fue el día en de su muerte, cuando la ciudad de lleno de carteles anunciando que finalmente dejado de... deber. Nació en el seno de un humilde hogar bogotano, su padre fue un veterano de la guerra de los mil días que al morir le dejó como única herencia una gran cantidad de deudas, contraídas durante toda una vida de estar esperando que algún día le pagaran el sueldo. Con los años, a las deudas de su padre se le sumaron las suyas propias, que tuvo que adquirir para poder sostener a su esposa y a sus seis hijos, una tarea que no podía cumplir contando solo con su pobre sueldo como segundo secretario de un juzgado. Esta novela, quizás la mejor que haya escrito su autor, además de ser un relato humorístico sobre la vida de un hombre común y corriente, es un retrato de Bogotá en el periodo que va de los años veinte a los sesenta, una época decisiva en su conversión de pequeña villa a gran ciudad. Aquí se habla de las luchas políticas entre los partidos, de la burocracia que entorpecían las acciones del gobierno, de los fraudes electorales, del nueve de abril, del ascenso de Rojas a la dictadura y en fin, de toda la historia de Bogotá y del país en este siglo, desde la perspectiva de las gentes que, aunque no hicieron historia, sí sintieron sus consecuencias en carne propia.
