«Misericordia» is the novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Cátedra in paperback (392 pages, in Spanish).
«Misericordia», published in 1897, reflects Benito Pérez Galdós's ideological disillusionment at the failure of regenerationism and turns the people into a collective protagonist. The novel recreates nineteenth-century Madrid with taverns, cheap eateries, churches and cemeteries, and combines the real with the symbolic in characters ranging from the tangible to the imaginative.
It is part of Cátedra's Letras Hispánicas collection; the edition is by Luciano García Lorenzo and includes an introduction, bibliography and notes.
Intended for literature students and readers of nineteenth-century Spanish fiction seeking an edition with critical apparatus.
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.
