Karmen / Kolomba
Karmen je pripovijetka smještena u Španjolsku i prati tragičnu ljubav između ciganske zavodnice Karmen i vojnika Don Joséa. Kolomba je pripovijetka smještena na Korziku i prikazuje priču o bratstvu, osveti i obiteljskoj časti.
Karmen: Karmen je slobodna, strastvena i neobuzdana žena koja zavodi Don Joséa, čestita vojnika, i odvodi ga na put propasti. Zaljubljeni Don José napušta vojsku, pridružuje se krijumčarima i sve dublje tone u zločin. No, Karmen ga odbacuje čim izgubi zanimanje za njega. U očaju i ljubomori, Don José je ubija. Mérimée u "Karmen" istražuje teme fatalne strasti, slobode i neukrotive prirode, stvarajući snažan psihološki portret propasti pod utjecajem strasti.
Kolomba: Mladi korzikanski časnik Orso della Rebbia vraća se kući nakon očeve smrti. Njegova sestra Kolomba nagovara ga da se osveti za ubojstvo njihova oca, što je ukorijenjeno u korzikanskom običajnom pravu. Orso se nalazi rastrgan između želje za civiliziranim životom i osjećaja dužnosti prema obiteljskoj časti. Susret s engleskom turistkinjom Lydijom Nevil dodatno utječe na njegovo razmišljanje. Na kraju, Kolomba sama pokreće krvnu osvetu. Mérimée kroz "Kolombu" istražuje sukob između divlje tradicije i modernih moralnih vrijednosti.
