Creators: Pedro Antonio de Alarcón (1833-1891) and Percy Bentley Burnet (1861-1935) [Editor] "El Capitán Veneno" by Pedro Antonio de Alarcón is a novel published in 1881. Set in Madrid during the turbulent year of 1848, the story follows the irascible Captain Jorge de Córdoba, wounded in street clashes and reluctantly taken in by two women: Doña Teresa and her daughter Angustias. The misogynistic captain must confront his fierce independence as he recovers under their care. When unexpected tragedy strikes and duty demands a decision, the Captain Veneno faces a choice that will determine all their futures. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
