One of the most popular writers in Spain, and perhaps the best known in other countries, is Benito Pérez Galdós. In nearly all his works he has sought to portray some particular phase of Spanish life. Though Galdós is not strictly speaking a "realist," his stories are intensely Spanish, and hence appeal to every foreigner interested in the daily life and doings and in the national customs of the Spanish people. - Introduction.
