Miséricorde by Benito Pérez Galdós
QR code
"Miséricorde" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a novel published in 1897. Set in Madrid's underworld, it follows Benina, a servant and beggar, as she navigates the city's streets alongside the blind Almudena. Through a procession of beggars, cripples, and the destitute, Galdós contrasts impoverished bourgeois families with compassionate outcasts. The title references both a famous charity hospital and divine mercy embodied in Benina's kindness. This work represents Galdós at his creative peak,
blending harsh realism with spiritual optimism about humanity's future. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
