About the book
"Don Juan Tenorio" by José Zorrilla is a play written in 1844. This romantic reimagining of the legendary Don Juan follows a notorious rake who wagers he can seduce any woman and defeat any man. When he kidnaps the innocent Doña Inés from a convent, genuine love stirs within him for the first time. But after murdering her father and abandoning her, Don Juan returns years later to find a cemetery where his mansion once stood—and discovers his victims' statues hold supernatural power over his fate.
