In the heart of Madrid, amidst the bustling streets and grand palaces, a forbidden love blossoms between Electra, a young woman of noble lineage, and Máximo, a humble artist. Their secret affair ignites a storm of passion and scandal, threatening to shatter the rigid social norms of their time.
As Electra grapples with her forbidden desires and the weight of societal expectations, she must confront the consequences of her choices. Will she defy convention and embrace her love for Máximo, or will she succumb to the pressures of her family and society?
Benito Pérez Galdós
Membre de l’Académie royale espagnole et nommé au prix Nobel en 1912, Galdós a su mêler humour, mélancolie et une critique acerbe des conventions, faisant de lui une figure majeure du patrimoine littéraire hispanique.
