Omschrijving

A forbidden passion that burns across a fragile horizon of honour and fate. Carmen plunges readers into a sunlit world of music, danger and desire, where love is tested by jealousies that threaten to tear a life apart. This restored edition presents Prosper Mérimée's novella in a Spanish setting with precision and lyricism, offering a compact, intense exploration of romantic tragedy, fate, and freedom. The tale unfolds with a gypsy chorus of loyalties, honour codes and smoky longing, delivering a powerful meditation on longing, risk and consequence. It is at once a taut romance and a moral riddle, inviting both casual readers and classic-literature collectors to linger on the edge of what must be surrendered for love. A note on literary and historical significance marks this edition as more than a reprint. Mérimée's compact craftsmanship helped shape nineteenth century Spanish and French literary sensibilities, and the story's resonance extends to the operatic imagination, appealing to fans of the Bizet opera as well as students of literary fiction. Here, the atmosphere of Seville and the tension between desire and duty feel incandescent, timeless, and vividly accessible. Out of print for decades, Alpha Editions has republished this novella with care, restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, inviting new readers to discover a lean, luminous classic that stays with the heart long after the final line.
