Decir que La Regenta es la historia de cómo unos personajes, inconformes con su mundo, anhelan trascenderlo y son vencidos en el intento es tan cierto como insuficiente porque, en el fondo, este conflicto se halla en todas las novelas del realismo europeo. Lo verdaderamente singular en La Regenta es la inmensa complejidad y riqueza de matices con que el conflicto se produce.
Escrita entre 1883 y 1885, fue un éxito desde el primer momento, apesar del silencio o la reacción negativa de buena parte de la crítica periodística. Consciente de la plenitud y madurez de su novela, el propio Clarín en una carta a un amigo confesaba su emoción por haber acabado "a los treinta y tres años una obra de arte".

Work Description
Married to the retired magistrate of Vetusta, Ana Ozores cares deeply for her much older husband but feels stifled by the monotony of her life in the shabby and conservative provincial town. And when she embarks on a quest for fulfillment through religion and even adultery, a bitter struggle begins between a powerful priest and a would-be Don Juan for the passionate young woman’s body and soul. Scandalizing contemporary Spain when it was first published in 1885, with its searing critique of the Church and its frank treatment of sex, La Regenta is a compelling and witty depiction of the complacent and frivolous world of upper-class society. - Random House
