'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
