«Doña Perfecta» is the novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Alianza Editorial in 2005 in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
Pepe Rey arrives in the episcopal city of Orbajosa to marry his cousin Rosario, daughter of doña Perfecta, a woman of firm convictions. The clash between the Europeanising progressivism of the young engineer and the traditional immobility of his surroundings is the axis of a plot about mother, daughter and intolerance in nineteenth-century Spain.
This 2005 edition belongs to the El Libro de Bolsillo collection from Alianza Editorial, in its Biblioteca Pérez Galdós series. The novel was originally published in 1876.
A work commonly read in academic settings and for those interested in nineteenth-century Spanish classics.
Benito María de los Dolores Pérez Galdós was a Spanish realist novelist and politician. He was a leading literary figure in 19th-century Spain, and some scholars consider him second only to Miguel de Cervantes in stature as a Spanish novelist.
