Review:
He has been a man of extraordinary influence on both my political and personal work.--Leonard Cohen
From the Back Cover:
Federico Garcia Lorca's position as one of the few geniuses of the modern theatre was firmly established in the English-speaking world with his Three Tragedies. Here with an introduction by the dramatist's brother, Francisco Garcia Lorca, are five of his 'comedies, ' in the authorized translations, extensively revised to reflect recent Lorca scholarship and to convey the sparkle, freshness, and magic of the original Spanish.

His murder during the Spanish Civil War made him a romantic figure in the eyes of the world, but his lasting fame will rest in the sheer poetry of his plays. The five plays in this volume were written over a period of sixteen years, from 1919 to 1935. They demonstrate the developing quality of García Lorca's work, while an introduction by Francisco García Lorca, Federico's brother, indicates some of the roots of his creative process.' (Quote from rear wrapper blurb). ***First impression of the first paperback edition of this collection. ***Of interest to collectors of Federico García Lorca, 1970s Penguin titles and collectable paperbacks. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Seller Inventory # PB127
