The novel portrays the lives of two marriages in nineteenth-century Madrid: the young gentleman Juanito Santa Cruz with his wife Jacinta, and Fortunata with her husband Maximiliano. The crossings between the two couples unleash loves, jealousies and infidelities, dilemmas of conscience and the aspiration to a decent life, in a city undergoing political transformations.

For readers of classic fiction and Spanish literature, as well as for those interested in the portrayal of nineteenth-century Madrid.
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.
