«El abuelo» is the dialogue novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Hernando in hardcover (238 pages, in Spanish).
The Count of Albrit, a blind old man, is the center of this story: his blindness leads him to doubt between what seems and what is certain, between affection and the threat of dishonor. Set in an indeterminate place in Spain, the novel reflects the social conditions of the era and stands out for its character drawing and dialogues.
Originally published in 1897, it was adapted for the theater by the author himself in 1904 and has also been brought to film and television.
For readers of Spanish literary classics, especially those interested in Galdós's final period and his dialogue novel style.
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.
