Read

"La araña negra, t. 1/9" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a novel written in 1892. This serialized work tells the story of the Baselga family, a noble Castilian lineage descended from Reconquista heroes. Set in early nineteenth-century Spain, the novel follows how the Jesuit Company patiently weaves a web to seize the family's wealth. Through this dramatic tale, Blasco Ibáñez delivers a harsh critique of the Jesuits, examining their methods and influence with such intensity that the author later repudiated the work.
