«Fortunata y Jacinta» (second volume) is the novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Círculo de Lectores in 1983, in hardcover (428 pages, in Spanish).
Set in Madrid in the second half of the nineteenth century, the novel interweaves the destinies of two very different women, Fortunata and Jacinta, united by their relationship with the same man, Juanito Santa Cruz. Through them, it portrays love, marriage, class differences, and the position of women in Spanish society at the time.
This copy is the second volume of the two-volume 1983 edition; the work was originally published in 1887.
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.
