El proceso fue publicado en 1925, un año despues de la muerte de autor. Obra maestro de la literatura, plantea, a traves de la historia de protagonista envuelto en un inexplicable proceso judicial, la gran tragedia que rodea al ser humano. No fue dificil al autor este planteamiento que perfila la muerte como meta ultima del hombre. No en vano reflejo en esta obra los entresijos de su vida, victim de la intransigencia de su padre y de deambular tuberculoso por sanatorios de Centro Europa.

En el plasma con maestria el desasosiego intimo de hombre contemporañeo

Between 1881 and 1897, Benito P rez Gald s, generally acknowledged as Spain's greatest nineteenth-century novelist, composed some twenty "contemporary" novels, which Geoffrey Ribbans characterizes as the peak of his achievement. This monumental study traces the evolution of the many strands that make up one of them: the long and complex novel Fortunata y Jacinta. Ribbans examines the various stages of composition, not only the earlier, reconstructed Alpha version but also subsequent revisions in the much corrected handwritten text and in the printer's galleys. He treats these tentative drafts as part of the process of reaching out toward the coherent definitive text. Ribbans's analysis of such devices as the ambiguous role of the narrator, the use of free indirect style and direct dialogue, and the construction of distinctive ideolects leads to the heart of his study, the development of Gald s's characters.
