Commentary Supposing Books Carmen / les âmes du purgatoire
Carmen, don Juan.Le mythe est universel. Mérimée lui donne sa propre dimension. Sauvage, effrontée, une fleur de cassis à la bouche, telle apparaît Carmen, fille de l'amour et de la liberté, toujours prête à mettre la rage au cœur, à pousser au crime. De ce jeu cruel elle est bientôt la victime, mais la mise à mort, ici, n'a pas lieu dans l'arène. Elle se tient à huis clos, pacte secret entre don José et sa gitane maudite.
Maudit aussi don Juan de Maraña qui, après une vie de scandales, ose, un soir, provoquer Dieu et lui soustraire une de ses nonnes. A l'heure du rapt, il croise an long cortège d'âmes du purgatoire qui accompagnent sa dépouille mortelle à l'église. Son imagination lui joue-t-elle un tour ou est-ce un signe du ciel ?

This little flash of a novella, the source of Bizet's far better known opera, is utterly gorgeous. Very reminiscent of Victor Hugo in its choice of emphasis, it tells the story of a soldier who falls in love with the enigmatic gypsy of the title. The story is told simply and without flights of poetry, but there is more to it than meets the eye, and Carmen is a kaleidoscope of a character who seems different every time you look at her. As an added bonus, this edition includes a foreword by Philip
