Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comedy of errors and mistaken identities set in 17th century Spain. Don Fernando has fallen in love with Donna Elvira, believing her to be an unmarried lady of quality, but after a night of passion she vanishes. Seeking her out in Valencia, he discovers her in a convent, hiding from her father who intends her to marry another. Disguised as a servant girl, Elvira becomes entangled in a series of romantic misadventures involving other characters, including her cousin Donna Blanca and her maid Francisca. The author's exploration of female agency and the power dynamics of gender relations give the book depth and thematic complexity. Despite its historical setting, the play's insights on love, deception, and the search for true identity resonate with contemporary readers.
