About “La Regenta”
Married to the retired magistrate of Vetusta, Ana Ozores cares for her much older husband but feels stifled by the monotony of provincial life. Seeking fulfillment through religion and adultery, she becomes the object of a bitter struggle between a powerful priest and a would-be Don Juan. First published in 1885, the novel scandalized Spain with its critique of the Church and frank treatment of sex. It is by Leopoldo Alas.
