Difficult to read. E-text prepared by Chuck Greif "Su único hijo" by Leopoldo Alas is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around Emma Valcárcel, a spoiled only child who falls in love with Bonifacio Reyes, the clerk of her father. The story explores themes of love, social class, and personal disillusionment as it traces Emma's relationships and ambitions after her life takes unexpected turns. The opening of the novel introduces us to Emma, who is deeply enamored with Bonifacio, a romantic yet impractical man. Their plans to elope are thwarted, leading Emma to a convent, while Bonifacio disappears from her life. Years later, after a series of events that show Emma's ambition to climb socially, she eventually marries Bonifacio, only to find disappointment and the burdens of her family's legacy. As the narrative unfolds, we see Emma struggling with her identity and her feelings for her husband, while Bonifacio grapples with his place in a family that views him as socially inferior. This promising start sets the stage for a complex exploration of their lives amidst societal expectations and personal desires.
