Read by Marian Diamond (1)
A lot of things have changed since this book was written in 1912. It's unlikely that you'd find such an orphanage as the John Grier Home, and women now have the vote in America. But the charm of this romantic story is still as fresh as ever, and though things may change, people and feelings don'.

John Tidmarsh
In Real Life by BENITO PEREZ GALD6s translated by NICHOLAS ROUND

Realidad, first performed in 1892 and based on one of his own novels, concerns the hypocrisy of the accepted social attitudes of the time, and the inner struggles of those forced to live by them.
