La Regenta - eBook play online

La Regenta (The Regent or The [female] Regent) is a realist novel by Spanish author Leopoldo Alas y Urea, also known as Clarn.

The story is set in Vetusta (Spanish vetusto stands for "antiquated", "extremely old", a provincial capital city, very identifiable with Oviedo, capital of Asturias especially since it is said that two monks, Nolan and John, founded the city, this being Oviedo's mythical genesis), where the main character of the work, Ana Ozores "La Regenta", marries the former prime magistrate of the city, Vctor Quintanar, a kind but fussy man much older than she. Feeling sentimentally abandoned, Ana lets herself be courted by the province casanova, lvaro Mesa. To complete the circle, Don Fermn de Pas (Ana's confessor and canon in the cathedral of Vetusta) also falls in love with her and becomes Mesa's unmentionable rival. A great panorama of secondary characters, portrayed by Clarn with merciless irony, completes the human landscape of the novel.
