Catriona
Stevenson, Robert Louis
Synopsis "Catriona"
In "Catriona," the captivating sequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure novel "Kidnapped," we follow the continuing journey of young David Balfour. Now a man of means after claiming his inheritance, David finds himself entangled in the treacherous world of 18th-century Scottish politics as he seeks justice for a friend falsely accused of murder. Along the way, he encounters the spirited and enigmatic Catriona MacGregor Drummond, and as their lives intertwine, David's quest for justice becomes a tale of love, honor, and loyalty. Immerse yourself in the richly detailed world of Stevenson's Scotland, where danger lurks around every corner and the path to redemption is never easy.
(Edimburgo, 1850 - Samoa, 1894) Novelista, cuentista, poeta y ensayista británico. Ingresó en la Universidad de Edimburgo cuando tenía dieciséis años para poder seguir los pasos de su padre y convertirse en ingeniero de faros, de lo cual desistiría. Sus estudios de náutica, le permitieron entrar en contacto con las gentes y costumbres marineras, ingredientes fundamentales en algunas de sus obras más conocidas. Su famosa obra, La Isla del tesoro, la publicó bajo el seudónimo de Captain George North en 1881. En 1886, llegaría El extraño caso del Dr. Jekyll y Mr. Hyde, uno de los grandes clásicos de la literatura. Murió en la Isla de Samoa, en su casa, Vailima.
