"La Incógnita" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds through a series of letters from the main character, Manolo Infante, addressed to his friend Equis, detailing his new life in Madrid after leaving his hometown of Orbajosa. The narrative dives into themes of social dynamics, personal transformation, and political intrigue, while also depicting the vibrant and sometimes tumultuous atmosphere of early 20th-century Spanish society. At the start of the novel, Manolo Infante writes to his friend Equis about his experiences and observations since moving to Madrid. He expresses a sense of newfound freedom and excitement, contrasting his bustling life in the capital with the mundane realities of Orbajosa. Through his letters, he introduces notable characters, including his fascinating godfather, Don Carlos María de Cisneros, whose eccentricity and engaging ideas prompt Manolo to reflect on his own identity and the nature of society. Manolo's letters are infused with humor and detailed descriptions of his interactions with both old acquaintances and new friends, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of relationships and societal nuances throughout the novel.
