Summary: Torquemada as a character is unsurpassed. What a rascal!
Comment: As an English major my background in Spanish literature was unfortunately limited. I have begun a personal project to fill in some of these gaps and it is proving to be a wonderful experience that has certainly been rewarding thus far. "Torquemada" by Benito Perez Galdos offers one of the truly great characters of literature in my opinion. He is nothing short of a rascal and an outrage, but you will love him and the book and find it very difficult to put the book down once you start reading. The cultural mosaic of Madrid and Spanish bourgeois society for better and for worse is brought clearly to the reader. Galdos is certainly a writer that deserves more attention in North America and the international literary community. He is truly one of the greatest on the stage of world literature and accomplished writing.
