La isla del tesoro by Robert Louis Stevenson
"La isla del tesoro" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a classic adventure novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows young Jim Hawkins as he embarks on a thrilling journey filled with pirates, treasure maps, and the quest for buried treasure after discovering an old pirate's chest. Central to the narrative is the character of Long John Silver, a cunning one-legged pirate with a complex character who poses both a
threat and a temptation to Jim. At the start of the novel, Jim Hawkins recounts the peculiar events surrounding the arrival of a mysterious old sailor, known as the Captain, at the Admiral Benbow inn. The Captain, a rough and intimidating man, quickly establishes a sense of foreboding with his strange behavior and unsettling songs about treasure. As Jim's curiosity is piqued, he learns of the Captain's hidden treasures and is drawn into a world of betrayal and adventure, especially after nighttime encounters with other shady characters eager to claim the fabled pirate treasure for themselves. The opening sections set a thrilling tone for the adventure that is to unfold, introducing a combination of danger, suspense, and the allure of exploration on the high seas.
