Miroslav Krleža is the author of the Glembay’s cycle. That cycle contains total of three drama and eleven novels (prose fragments). The drama of the cycle is made up of the drama of Gentlemen Glembajevi, In agony and Leda. Novels, fragments and literary portraits of the Glembay’s circle are a kind of addition to these three plays. As evident from the title itself, Krleža depicts the genesis, or the decomposition and degeneration of a wealthy patrician family. In all three dramas from the Glembay’s cycle, the key figure through which the mechanism of action is taking is women. In the drama In agony the central figure of the general daughter, Laura Lenbach, who is working as a tailor, and all her money in a variety of ways takes her husband, Baron Lenbach. For all this, Laura turns to her lover, lawyer dr. Ivan Križovec. Although Laura is a morally dubious figure, she is spontaneous, sincere and naive in the desire to realize sincere love. Her husband refuses to give her a divorce, but after his suicide Laura finds out that her lover does not want marriage and family with her because he has other intimate plans and that she was naive. Laura’s commits suicide. Her death is inevitable because she wants to punish her killer, but also because she has to redeem her death in the purported social norms. Her destiny must be tragic. Laura stands out from other stereotyped women's characters in Krleža’s works and unlike them, she has a voice.
