Arroz y tartana by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez

Set in Valencia, it follows Doña Manuela Pajares, a twice-widowed woman determined to maintain appearances for her daughters' marriages despite mounting debts.

The novel contrasts traditional commerce with risky financial speculation, exploring the clash between old certainties and modern temptations in late nineteenth-century Spanish society.
