Doña Perfecta: Novela Española Contemporánea (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book is an enthralling historical novel that takes readers on a journey into the heart of 19th century Spain. It tells the story of Pepe Rey, a young progressive intellectual who travels to the remote city of Orbajosa to meet his prospective bride, Rosarito. As Pepe navigates the stark social and cultural contrasts between his modern, cosmopolitan life and the traditional, devout world of Orbajosa, he finds himself grappling with profound questions about faith, morality, and the path to personal fulfilment. Through the relationships he forms with Rosarito, her devout mother, and the charismatic priest Father Inocencio, Pepe is forced to confront his own beliefs and challenge the rigidly conservative values that dominate Orbajosa society. The book immerses readers in a richly imagined historical setting, exploring the clash between tradition and modernity, the power of religious belief, and the search for meaning and connection in a rapidly changing world.
