| Summary | "La araña negra, t. 7/9" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a novel written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the aftermath of the September Revolution of 1868 in Spain, highlighting themes of political tumult, personal betrayal, and the complex interactions of social classes. The story seems to center around the character of Esteban Alvarez, a former revolutionary who grapples with his political ideals and personal relationships, particularly concerning his estranged daughter, María. At the start of the novel, we see Alvarez returning to Spain after the revolution's victory, filled with hopes of reuniting with a protector from his past. However, his journey is met with disappointment as he discovers that his former ally, Don Pedro Corrales, has vanished. The opening segments introduce Alvarez as a committed republican, struggling against the tide of political change and societal expectations. His interactions with both the aristocracy, embodied by the baronesa de Carrillo, who raises his daughter María, and the political elite, reveal deep tensions stemming from their differing values. As Alvarez attempts to reconnect with his daughter, the baroness is determined to protect María from what she perceives as the threat posed by her father, setting the stage for a conflict driven by love, societal constraints, and revenge.
