«La desheredada» is the novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Ediciones Cátedra in paperback (512 pages, in Spanish).
Isidora Rufete, a young woman raised far from luxury, is convinced she is descended from a noble family and devotes her life to claiming a title and an inheritance she believes to be rightfully hers. Galdós sets her struggle in Restoration Madrid and paints a portrait of the obsession with social climbing, where inheritance becomes a devastating illusion.
Originally published in 1881; this is the 3rd edition, edited by Germán Gullón, volume 502 of Cátedra's Letras Hispánicas collection.
A frequent reading in Spanish literature courses, intended for those seeking classics of nineteenth-century realism and Galdós's narrative.
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.
