| Summary | "El Jayón: Drama en tres actos" by Concha Espina is a drama likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around themes of love, betrayal, and the harsh realities of life in a rustic setting, primarily featuring characters Marcela and Andrés, alongside the figure of Irene, whose past with Andrés complicates their relationship. The opening of the play establishes the backdrop of a rural setting in Cantabria, where Marcela and Andrés engage in an intimate yet tense conversation about a child they have taken in, whom they refer to as the "jayón." Marcela is troubled by her husband's lingering feelings for Irene, the child's mother, and their discussion is laden with jealousy and unspoken fears regarding their family's dynamics and the implications of caring for a child abandoned by another woman. Tensions rise as Marcela's insecurities about her husband's past and their present reality give way to a deeper exploration of human emotions, loyalties, and the burdens of motherhood, setting the stage for the unfolding drama.
