It tells the story of Marianela, a poor girl of disadvantaged appearance who serves as a guide to Pablo, a blind young man from a good family.

The work interweaves sentimental drama with reflections on social justice, blindness, and the human condition.

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.
