5/24/2023 0 Comments Zorro a novel by isabel allendeDouglas Fairbanks took a copy of The Curse of Capistrano with him on his honeymoon and ended up making the first Zorro movie. It turned out to be the first of 65 tales and was followed by 37 film versions, not including the matinee serials. The author probably never expected it to become as popular as it did, because the story ended with the hero revealing his secret identity. He started life in Johnston McCulley's novel The Curse of Capistrano, which was serialized in the pulp magazine All-Story Weekly in 1919. The book explains, in great detail, just how "El Zorro," the Fox, came to be so acrobatic, such a skilled swordsman, where he got his horse, Tornado, even how he designed that stylish black costume. Though it's mostly set in Spain, international bestselling author Isabel Allende 's most recent novel begins and ends in California, the traditional setting of the Zorro adventures.
