«El audaz: Historia de una radical de antaño» is the historical novel by Benito Pérez Galdós in paperback, published by Libertarias Prodhufi (528 pp.).
Set in 1804, with the Ancien Régime in decline and the influence of the French Revolution, it is the love story between an impassioned young liberal, educated in Voltaire, and a young noble and moderate woman. Galdós contrasts idealism and social reality and, through the protagonist's failure, criticises revolutionary excess and advocates modernising without disorder.
«El audaz» is number 38 in the Clásicos Libertarias collection. Edition by Íñigo Sánchez Llama. Novel originally published in 1871.
Aimed at readers of Spanish classics and literature students; includes introduction, notes, glossary and study topics.
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.
