Misericordia
'Misericordia' Summary
La novela se centra en la vida de Benito, un mendigo que lucha por sobrevivir en las calles de Madrid. Galdós describe con detalle la miseria, la enfermedad y la desesperación que sufren los más pobres de la sociedad. Benito encuentra un rayo de esperanza cuando conoce a una mujer llamada Benita, quien intenta ayudarlo a salir de su situación. Sin embargo, los obstáculos que enfrentan son numerosos, y Benito se ve obligado a confrontar la corrupción, la indiferencia y la crueldad de la sociedad. La novela se convierte en un retrato crudo y conmovedor de la pobreza en la España de la época, y ofrece una crítica social mordaz de las instituciones y las personas que se benefician de la miseria de los demás.Book Details
