La piedra angular is a novel by the Spanish writer Emilia Pardo Bazán, published in 1891. The story focuses on an executioner, his son, and a man who tries to redeem them from a fateful destiny. In a Spain where the death penalty is accepted despite social inequalities, the dominant hypocrisy despises the executioner. Pardo Bazán uses this novel to show the moral struggle of the characters in a context of pettiness and misery.
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.
