In one conversation with the late Dr. Gregorio Marañón, on Jan. 17, 1951, he told me that Maria’s mother was una mujer del pueblo and that women of the common people sometimes sought Galdós, rather than his seeking them.
He also said that Galdós had humorously related to him Pardo Bazán’s attempts to seduce him. (N. del A.)
