Carmen, siempre peligrosa, vuelve a la Fábrica de Tabácos

La presentación de la obra "Carmen" basada en la novela original de Prosper Mérimée (y no en la ópera de Bizet) en el mismo patio fuente de la antigua Real Fábrica de Tabácos de Sevilla (donde se supone que trabajaba la gitana Carmen de verdad): bellísima e impactante. 


No hace falta la conocidísima música de Bizet para transmitir la pasión de esta historia—que tiene si cabe aún más fuerza sin esa distracción. La gitana es un huracán que no se somete a nadie, o sí—porque al final pide la muerte, que es un tipo de liberación. María Martínez de Tejada (Carmen), Aníbal Soto (don José), y Chema del Barco (el Tuerto) son magníficos. No la pierdas si estás por Sevilla este verano.

Geoffrey Fox's short story collection Welcome to My Contri (1988, enlarged e-book 2010) was described by The New York Times Book Review as a "short and impressive work" in which "Mr. Fox [...] has created a memorable set of players who, while not natural antagonists (they often share the same dreams and goals), are still somehow bent on confrontation. Watching their sometimes vicious, often darkly humorous interactions leaves us thoroughly wrung out and aware that we are in the presence of a formidable new writer". Novels: A Gift for the Sultan (2010), Rabble! (2022) His articles, op-eds and book reviews have appeared in The Nation, The New York Times, the Village Voice and other publications. Since 2008, Fox has been living with his partner, architect Susana Torre, on the edge of the Mediterranean in the village of Carboneras in Andalusia, Spain, where his short stories (in Spanish) under the pen name "Baltasar Lotroyo" ("el otro yo" = alter ego in Spanish) have appeared in anthologies and online publications.
