Decir que "La Regenta" es la historia de c�mo unos personajes, inconformes con su mundo, anhelan trascenderlo y son vencidos en el intento es tan cierto como insuficiente porque, en el fondo, este conflicto se halla en todas las novelas del realismo europeo. Lo verdaderamente singular en "La Regenta" es la inmensa complejidad y riqueza de matices con que el conflicto se produce. Escrita entre 1883 y 1885, fue un �xito desde el primer momento, a pesar del silencio o la reacci�n negativa de buena parte de la cr�tica period�stica. Consciente de la plenitud y madurez de su novela, el propio Clar�n en una carta a un amigo confesaba su emoci�n por haber acabado "a los treinta y tres a�os una obra de arte".
