Description

The Unknown (1889) is Galdos' first and only totally epistolary novel. The narrator, writing to a friend in the country, tells of Madrid's politics, society, amours, characters, and crimes. This translation of the text seeks to retain Galdos' humour and sarcasm on the society and people he knew so well.
