| Summary | "La araña negra, t. 8/9" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the love between Juanito Zarzoso, a young doctor, and María, while they navigate social pressures and family interference in their relationship. Set against a backdrop of aristocratic society and the influence of religious figures, the novel explores themes of love, ambition, and societal expectations. At the start of the narrative, we learn about Juanito's impending departure to Paris, which weighs heavily on his and María’s hearts. Despite the attempts of the scheming widow Doña Esperanza and Father Tomás to manipulate their relationship for their own aims—specifically to separate the lovers and arrange a suitable marriage for María—the bond between Juanito and María remains strong. The tension mounts as Juanito’s journey unfolds, leading to a poignant farewell in the Retiro, where their deep affection is palpable despite the lurking machinations of those around them. The opening sets the stage for a dramatic exploration of love and ambition, positioning the characters amidst the intricate webs of societal expectations and personal desires.
