«El Capitán Veneno» is the novel by Pedro Antonio de Alarcón, published by Edicomunicación in paperback (127 pages, in Spanish).
A captain in the Spanish army, famous for his violent temper and for fleeing from women, is wounded and left convalescing under the care of a young woman. That forced closeness gradually softens his character, while a love story emerges; Alarcón combines humor, romance and a critical look at the society of his time.
The novel was originally published in 1881. This edition appeared in 1993 in the Clásicos Universales collection, under the Fontana imprint.
A suitable read for students and for readers interested in nineteenth-century Spanish literature.
