Synopsis "El Tulipán Negro: spanish edition (in Spanish)"

Los hermanos De Witt, protegidos del gran rey Luis de Francia, encontrarán la muerte a manos de la enloquecida población de La Haya, que les cree culpables de conspiración. Pero antes de morir dejarán a su ahijado Cornelius unos comprometedores documentos que le llevarán a la cárcel, donde, en compañía de la joven Rosa, se afanará en conseguir lo que más desea en el mundo: el bulbo del tulipán negro. Con su habitual talento narrativo, Alejandro Dumas despliega en esta novela de intriga todos los ingredientes necesarios para atrapar al lector desde la primera página y sumergirlo en la tumultuosa sociedad holandesa de finales del siglo XVII.

Alexandre Dumas is one of the most prolific and popular authors from France. He was born in 1802 in the city of Villers-Cotterets, and soon moved to Paris to work as a secretary for the Duke of Orléans. There, he completed his education on his own and began to take an interest in writing.
He started by writing plays, and then moved on to poems and long stories. However, his real success did not come until 1844, the year he released the work that would catapult him to fame: The Three Musketeers. The serial publication of this novel brought him a huge sum of money, but it also meant countless hours of work, many collaborators, and the production of up to eighty installments to meet the growing public demand.
After the publication of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, Dumas amassed a great fortune. However, his hedonistic nature led him to squander all he had earned and he soon found himself forced to exile in Belgium to escape his French creditors.
The Count of Monte Cristo, the pinnacle of the author's narrative, is considered one of the greatest adventure novels of all time.
