«Marianela» is the classic novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Ediciones Cátedra in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
Nela, a young woman who feels ugly and useless, serves as a guide to Pablo, a blind boy who values her kindness and falls in love with her. Pablo believes her beautiful inner self must be reflected in her face. When he regains his sight, that conviction breaks and both face a reality different from the idealized image they had built.
Part of the «Cátedra base» collection. Originally published in 1878, this 2009 edition includes an introduction and the section «Después de la lectura».
For the general public wanting to approach Spanish classics and for students working on it in secondary school.
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.
