Synopsis "Insolación / Heatstroke (in Spanish)"

Publicada en la estela de éxitos como Los pazos de Ulloa y La madre naturaleza, Insolación cuenta la relación que entablan en la madrileña feria de San Isidro Asís Taboada, una viuda de 32 años, y Diego Pacheco, un joven y apuesto gaditano. La historia comienza en retrospectiva, cuando la protagonista despierta con resaca y empieza a recordar los acontecimientos del día anterior; pero el fluir de su conciencia pronto se combina con el drama para abordar un amor que no ignora la ley del deseo. Considerada escabrosa en su momento, la obra recibió críticas moralizantes de sus contemporáneos. En la actualidad, sin embargo, se reivindican sus grandes cualidades literarias, así como la denuncia que hizo la autora del doble rasero aplicado a hombres y mujeres en materia de moral sexual. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Published in the wake of her great hits like Los pazos de Ulloa / The House of Ulloa and La madre naturaleza / Mother Nature, Insolación /Heatstroke narrates the relationship established at the San Isidro Asís fair in Madrid by a 32-year-old widow, Taboada, and Diego Pacheco, a handsome young man from Cadiz.The story begins in retrospect, when the widow wakes up hungover and starts to remember the events from the night before; but the flow of her consciousness soon intertwines with the drama of tackling a love that is full of desire. Considered risqué and indecent at the time, the work received moralizing criticism from its contemporaries. However, in current times her great literary qualities are vindicated, as well as her rebuke of the double standards applied to men and women in matters of sexual morality.
