Poetry

Although the life of Federico Garc a Lorca (1898-1936) was tragically brief, the Spanish poet and dramatist created an enduring body of work that remains internationally important. This selection of 55 poems from the 1921 collection Libro de poemas represents some of his finest work. Imbued with Andalusian folklore, rich in metaphor, and spiritually complex.
