Relation Toward Books La Regenta

En las páginas de La Regenta el joven catedrático de la Universidad de Oviedo, Leopoldo Alas, pretendía crear un gran fresco narrativo sobre la sociedad burguesa y urbana, dominada por la nobleza decadente, el clero egoísta y la política caciquil, centrado en la seducción y el adulterio de una dama, Ana Ozores, representativa de aquella sociedad.

Gregorio Torres Nebrera es catedrático de Literatura Española de la Universidad de Extremadura. Especialista en los siglos XIX y XX, de su trabajo destacan sus estudios y ediciones de Larra, Zorrilla, Valle-Inclán, Azorín, Alberti, y de los autores del teatro español contemporáneo.

I thought the three main men were very believable, Don Fermin, a priest who lusts after one of his parishioners, Don Victor, who is unable to satisfy his wife, and Don Álvaro, who is a regular Casanova all appeared to be

This is basically the spanish (and creepier) Anna Karenina.It's a hard but satisfying journey.

Thirty years after reading it it remains in my mind as one of the most satisfying books I have had the pleasure to read

Marvelous novel, that told me the 19th century novel was alive and kicking in Spain - I had no idea. If you think you've run out of great 19th century novels, oh come here.

Great classic realism story, too bad it's XIX century literature and it drags and drags along for hundreds of inconsequential pages.

A great book, great characters and very human behaviors.
