Summary: "La Tribuna" by Emilia Pardo Bazán is a novel written during the late 19th century. This work intricately examines local customs and societal issues in Spain, intertwining the lives of its characters with the political context of recent historical events. The central character is Amparo, a young girl living in poverty, who aspires for a better life while navigating the harsh realities of her environment. The opening of the novel introduces readers to the daily life of Rosendo, a barquillero (wafer seller) in the fictional town of Marineda, and his young daughter, Amparo. As dawn breaks, they engage in the laborious task of preparing freshly made barquillos for sale. The text vividly depicts their modest living conditions, the father's routine, and the daughter's blend of duty and youthful eagerness as she hopes to escape her constrained life. The narrative sets a tone of social realism, exploring themes of class struggle and the pursuit of personal dreams within the constraints of societal expectations.
