About the book

Prosper Mérimée's Carmen tells the story of the passionate and independent Carmen and the soldier Don José. José becomes increasingly obsessed with her, abandoning his former life as jealousy and possessiveness take control. Set largely in Spain, the novella combines romance, crime and tragedy and later inspired Georges Bizet's famous opera.
