Armando Palacio Vald???s es un gran creador de tipos femeninos y es diestro en la pintura costumbrista; sabe tambi???n bosquejar personajes secundarios. Al contrario que otros autores concede al humor un papel importante en su obra. En La espuma, la hija del banquero - quien, como ni???a, hab???a sido torturada por una madre cruel - es fr???a, orgullosa y caprichosa; en la misma novela una prostituta arruina al banquero, reduci???ndole a la imbecilidad; Pepa Fr???as seduce a su propio yerno, Palacio Vald???s satiriza la vulgaridad, la inmoralidad y la hipocres???a religiosa de las clases altas y denuncia la explotaci???n de los mineros. Su obra ha sido muy traducida, especialmente al ingl???s, e igualmente apreciada fuera de Espa???a; es seguramente junto a Vicente Blasco Ib??????ez el autor espa???ol del siglo XIX m???s le???do en el extranjero. Su estilo es claro y pulcro sin incluir neologismos ni arca???smos.
