Los dos primeros capitulos ofrecen una vision general de los generos literarios relevantes para este estudio como la autobiografia la novela autobiografica y la novela testimonial asi como del contexto socio-historico de la Pentagonia. Posteriormente este estudio analiza en detalle cada novela por separado y ofrece una vision de la Pentagonia en su conjunto.
