I had always suspected the geographical authorities did not know what they were talking about when they located the battlefield of Munda in the county of the Bastuli-Poeni, close to the modern Monda, some two leagues north of Marbella. According to my own surmise, founded on the text of the anonymous author of the Bellum Hispaniense, and on certain information culled from the excellent library owned by the Duke of Ossuna, I believed the site of the memorable struggle in which Caesar played double or quits, once and for all, with the champions of the Republic, should be sought in the neighbourhood of Montilla.
🎧 Includes the full unabridged audiobook (LibriVox recording) along with the ePub.
Description
Prosper Mérimée's short, fierce novella tells the tragic story of Don José, a Spanish soldier who falls fatally under the spell of the wild, free-spirited Gypsy girl Carmen. The basis for Bizet's immortal opera, it is a tale of passion, jealousy, and the fatal price of obsession.
