Carmen was created by an alter ego of French author Prosper Mérimée, first published serially in 1845. The story letter Mérimée wrote to the Countess of Montijo, Carmen was inspired by a story she told him on his visit to Spain in 1830. He said, "It was about that ruffian from Málaga who had killed his mistress, who consecrated herself exclusively to the public... As I have been studying the Gypsies for some time, I have made my heroine a Gypsy." The mixture of travelogue, adventure, and romance story was narrated to a flirtatious, charismatic, and amoral gypsy who bewitches and emotionally enslaves Don José, a desperate man, into a tragic obsession, has captivated generations with its passion and sensual intensity. We hope you enjoy a wonderful English version translated by Lady Mary Loyd.
