EL MAYOR TESORO DEL ATLÁNTICO: “EL ALBATROS NEGRO” - MARÍA ORUÑA - LA HORA DEL MUSEO #3846

In October 1702, 19 Spanish galleons entered the Vigo estuary laden with what the Madrid Gazette itself described as the greatest treasure ever to cross the Atlantic: gold, silver, and jewels accumulated over years in the colonies of the New World. What happened next became one of Europe's most enduring legends. The ships sank, the battle was lost, and no one knows for sure what lay at the bottom. Jules Verne used it as the setting for Captain Nemo. María Oruña, a Galician writer born in Vigo itself, transformed that story into The Black Albatross: a novel that jumps between 1700 and the present, blending thriller, adventure, and history, and using the estuary as what it has always been: an underwater museum full of secrets.
