It is a novel about female freedom, love and morality.
It is part of Alianza's Biblioteca Pérez Galdós collection (El Libro de Bolsillo). It belongs to the cycle of Novelas españolas contemporáneas; it was originally published in 1892.
For readers of classic Spanish fiction and stories about women's emancipation in the nineteenth century.
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.
