Romancero gitano

by Federico García Lorca, Daniel Montero (Illustrator)

Publicada en 1928, Romancero gitano es una de las crea¬ciones poéticas más importantes del siglo xx. En esta obra, compuesta por dieciocho romances en los que prima un uso exquisito de la metáfora, se tratan temas universales como la muerte, el amor y la pasión, todo ello con la cultura gitana como eje central. En él se dan la mano tradición y modernidad en un libro profundo, intenso, con una personalidad única que se traduce en pura armonía. Una obra maestra que sigue emocionando al lector como el primer día.

About the author

Born in Fuente Vaqueros, Granada, Spain, June 5 1898; died near Granada, August 19 1936, García Lorca is one of Spain's most deeply appreciated and highly revered poets and dramatists. His murder by the Nationalists at the start of the Spanish civil war brought sudden international fame, accompanied by an excess of political rhetoric which led a later generation to question his merits; after the inevitable slump, his reputation has recovered (largely with a shift in interest to the less obvious works). He must now be bracketed with Machado as one of the two greatest poets Spain has produced in the 20th century, and he is certainly Spain's greatest dramatist since the Golden Age.
