About this book

A traveller loses his way at nightfall on a path in the hills of northern Spain, and from that wrong turn begins Benito Pérez Galdós's novel, here in Clara Bell's English version of 1883. Its heroine is Nela, a poor girl who acts as guide to a blind young man, Pablo; the arrival of a doctor, one of the Golfin brothers, raises the hope that he might see. Chapter titles include Nobody's Children, Doctor Celipin and Eyes that Kill. The translator calls the tone idyllic and the heroine's fate pitiable.
