Insolación is a masterpiece by Emilia Pardo Bazán, one of the most important writers of the 19th century. The novel tells the story of Asís Taboada, a young widow who experiences an intense internal debate about the attraction and desire she feels for Diego Pacheco during the San Isidro festivities in Madrid. Pardo Bazán transcends naturalism to delve into the most psychological realistic novel, transgressing the rigid precepts of the morality of the time. This edition is complemented by a selection of short stories that capture the modernity and stylistic and thematic breadth of the Galician author.
Emilia Pardo Bazán y de la Rúa-Figueroa, Countess of Pardo Bazán was a Spanish novelist, journalist, literary critic, poet, playwright, translator, editor and professor.
