520 Don Lope is a Don Juan, an aging but still effective
predator on the opposite sex. He is also charming and
generous, unhesitatingly contributing the better part of
his fortune to pay off a friend's debts, kindly assuming
responsibility for the friend's orphaned daughter, lovely
Tristana. Don Lope takes her into his house and before
long he takes her to bed. It's an arrangement that
Tristana accepts more or less unquestioningly, that is,
until she meets the handsome young painter Horacio. Then
she actively rebels, sets out to educate herself, reveals
tremendous talents, and soon surpasses her lover in her
open defiance of convention. One thing is for sure:
Tristana will be her own woman. And when it counts Don
Lope will be there for her.
520 8 Benito Pérez Galdós, one of the most sophisticated and
delightful of the great European novelists, was a clear-
eyed, compassionate, and not-a-little amused observer of
the confusions, delusions, misrepresentations, and
perversions of the mind and heart. He is the unsurpassed
chronicler of the reality show called real life.--
