«Carmen Carmen» is the play by Antonio Gala published in 1988 by Espasa Calpe in hardback, with 169 pages, in Spanish.
Antonio Gala presented this theatrical piece as a tribute to the myth of Carmen, with irony and ease to tell truths. The protagonist can be understood as each spectator wishes to see her, while the play reflects on how small ambitions, the thirst for power and a false sense of honour turn the joy of living into suffering.
This edition belongs to the Austral Collection and includes a prologue by José Romera Castillo, professor of Spanish literature.
Recommended for readers of contemporary Spanish theatre and for those interested in rewritings of the Carmen myth.
Antonio Gala Velasco was a Spanish poet, playwright, novelist, and writer.
