Resumen
ZOPATTI, Damian et al. Horacio Quiroga and his relationship with poisons. Acta toxicol. argent. [online]. 2022, vol.30, n.1, pp.31-40. ISSN 1851-3743.
The life and the work of the writer Horacio Quiroga has been marked by poisons and venoms on several occasions. Connoisseur of the flora and fauna of the Misiones jungle, he reflected in his characters the knowledge of poisons and venoms that he possessed. As for his personal life and that of his family, the poison was present until his last days. Both the poisons and venoms detailed in his work as well as the outcome of his suicide with potassium cyanide are detailed in this work.
