La narratrice, jeune fille de bonne famille, a fait de très hautes études (pour l'époque) puisqu'elle est licenciée de l'université. Le malheur la frappe soudain: s'enchaînent la disparition de la fortune familiale, la mort de son père et par voie de conséquence la rupture de ses fiançailles. Réduite à l'hospitalité mal gracieuse de son oncle, elle est contrainte à se loger de manière plus que sommaire et à travailler; mais son trop haut niveau d'études ne lui permet pas de postuler à un emploi d'institutrice. C'est donc en cachant ses diplômes qu'elle se fait embaucher comme femme de service dans une école maternelle du quartier des plâtriers dans La Zone qui n'est déjà plus Paris et pas encore la banlieue-Est: Ménilmontant.
