La regenta
Alas, Leopoldo, 1852-19012005
Book
First published in Spain in 1885, Alas' classic tale of a woman trapped in her monotonous life caused great controversy because of its searing critique of the church and frank treatment of sex. This translation also includes an analysis of the authors narrative techniques, realism and modern psychological characterisations.
