Marianela is a novel written by a Spanish author Benito Pérez Galdós in 1878. It is a tragic
but lovely story about a poor orphan girl whose name was Marianela but almost all people
called her La Nela. Marianela lives with the foreman's family of a rich state where mining is
the main industry there. The girl frequently sings to Pablo a blind boy who believes she is
beautiful because of her voice. Pablo hopes his sight can be restored and promises La Nela that
he will marry her after the operation if it is successful. Yet fate writes another scenario.
