Synopsis "La Flecha Negra (in Spanish)"

La Flecha Negra es una novela histórica escrita por Robert Louis Stevenson en 1888. Su título original en inglés es The Black Arrow: A Tale of the Two Roses (La flecha negra: un relato de las dos rosas). La historia transcurre durante la Guerra de las Dos Rosas, guerra civil en la que se enfrentaron la Casa de Lancaster contra la Casa de York por el trono de Inglaterra. Richard Dick Shelton es el protagonista; la novela cuenta como llega a convertirse en caballero, rescata a Joanna Sedley y obtiene justicia de la muerte de su padre. Unos forajidos del bosque de Tunstall organizados por Ellis Duckworth, causan sospechas a Dick sobre la participación de su tutor Sir Daniel Brackley en el asesinato de su padre. Esta desconfianza hacia su tutor lo lleva a ponerse contra él. La novela comienza en Tunstall; Richard "Dick" Shelton y Bennet Hatch tratan de reclutar al arquero Appleyard. De pronto, una flecha surge del bosque y mata al veterano soldado.

(Edinburgh, 1850 - Samoa, 1894) British novelist, short story writer, poet, and essayist. He entered the University of Edinburgh at the age of sixteen to follow in his father's footsteps and become a lighthouse engineer, a career he would later abandon. His nautical studies allowed him to come into contact with seafaring people and customs, key ingredients in some of his most famous works. His renowned work, Treasure Island, was published under the pseudonym Captain George North in 1881. In 1886, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, one of the great classics of literature, was released. He died on the island of Samoa, at his home, Vailima.
