| Summary | "Fortunata y Jacinta: dos historias de casadas" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores the intertwining lives of two women, Fortunata and Jacinta, focusing on themes of love, marriage, and societal expectations within Spanish society. The story delves into the emotional and moral complexities that shape their experiences, particularly through the character of Juanito Santa Cruz, whose choices significantly impact both women's lives. The opening of the novel introduces Juanito Santa Cruz, a young student whose life is marked by both privilege and turbulence. Born to wealthy parents, he initially indulges in carefree university life characterized by mischief and camaraderie with friends. However, as he matures, he becomes increasingly studious yet struggles with the expectations of adulthood. The passage showcases the deep affection his mother, Barbarita, has for him, while hinting at the forthcoming challenges he will face during his formative years. Through Juanito's development and the dynamics within his family, the narrative sets the stage for exploring the broader themes of love, societal roles, and personal identity intertwined with the lives of Fortunata and Jacinta.
