La Malquerida: Drama En Tres Actos Y En Prosa

La Malquerida, a drama by Jacinto Benavente first published in 1941, is set in a Castilian village and explores themes of forbidden desire and communal pressure. The play follows Raimunda and her daughter Acacia, whose betrothal to Faustino is disrupted by a violent act that ignites jealousy and revenge among the villagers. As the community divides over the incident, the narrative delves into the consequences of love turned violent, making it a significant work in 20th-century Spanish drama.
