Book Description
Morriña explores the story of Doña Aurora, her son Rogelio and Esclavita, the new maid of the house. The novel follows a simple plot, almost a domestic tale of the three characters, whose inner monologue is presented in such a clear and lifelike way that it evokes readers' emotions. It's a story about the undesirable outcomes of manipulating the sentiments of others. The book has an intriguing character who is relatively less sketched but leaves us with an everlasting impression. Emilia Pardo Bazán published Morriña in 1889, and it became an instant hit. The author received fame for this work which led her to become a prominent figure in the literary movement among the Spanish public. Following her style, Bazan included political issues, personal visions, and social portraits in Morrina. The people, the customs, and the Spanish society's life during the period are illustrated in this work in great detail.
