"La araña negra, t. 6/9" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a novel written in 1892. This serialized work tells the story of the Baselga family, Spanish nobility whose lineage traces back to Reconquista heroes. Set in early nineteenth-century Spain, the novel follows how the Jesuit Order patiently weaves a web to seize the family's fortune. Blasco Ibáñez later disowned this youthful work, excluding it from his complete works due to its harsh criticism of the Jesuits. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
