"Doña Perfecta" (1876) is not only the novel by Benito Pérez Galdós (1843-1920) that aroused the most heated controversy, but also a highly representative work of his first creative stage.
Pepe Rey, a young engineer, arrives in the episcopal city of Orbajosa to marry Rosarito, his cousin, and daughter of Doña Perfecta, a pillar of Orbajosa society.
Mixed with the sentimental entanglement, the conflict between the progressive and Europeanizing mentality of the young man and the immobile attitude of a society attached to traditional beliefs and ways of existence is the warp around which the novel is woven.
