«El abuelo» is the dialogue novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Signo Editores in paperback (200 pages, in Spanish).
The story follows the Count of Albrit, an elderly representative of a declining nobility who returns to his land with two dilemmas: what place his class occupies in the new urban society and which of his two granddaughters is his true descendant. Honor, appearances, blood ties and feelings intertwine in this novel of dramatic intensity.
The work was originally published in 1897 and Galdós adapted it for the theatre in 1904. It belongs to the collection «Obras escogidas de Benito Pérez Galdós» as volume 3.
For readers of Spanish literature classics and of Galdós's final period.
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.
