Summary: "Nazarín" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a singular character named Nazarín, a humble clergyman who exemplifies selflessness and a deep compassion for society's outcasts, as he navigates life within the impoverished neighborhoods of Madrid. Through his interactions with various eccentric characters, the novel explores themes of morality, social justice, and the complexity of human nature. The opening of "Nazarín" introduces us to a gritty scene in a rundown boarding house run by a formidable woman known as Tía Chanfaina amidst the lively and chaotic backdrop of Carnival. A journalist discovers this place, setting the stage for a colorful cast of characters, including the boisterous and commanding Chanfaina herself. We also meet Nazarín, the titular character, who appears to be a blend of saintly idealism and societal disapproval, quietly living with few material possessions. As the narrative unfolds, the reader is drawn into the lives of these characters and their struggles, particularly when Nazarín encounters Ándara, a woman seeking refuge from a violent altercation, showcasing his commitment to aiding the downtrodden despite his own meager circumstances.
