Misericordia
Amidst the great turmoil, appalling conditions and ineffable hardships of impoverished nineteenth-century Spain, the realist writer Benito Pérez Galdós brilliantly weaves a tale of humanity and friendship in Misericordia, a story about the compassion, unfaltering loyalty and devotion of the main character, Benina, towards her neighbors. - María Isabel Rovira Martínez de Contrasta
