Synopsis

SINOPSIS."Bodas de Sangre" escrita por García Lorca en el año 1933, durante una etapa en la cual quiso alejarse de la poesía para acercarse a la realidad. De esta forma, podía reflejar el tedio y las restricción de la vida en los Pueblos del Sur de España. La obra comienza con una conversación entre el novio y su madre, en la que planean pedirle la mano de su novia. La tragedia encuentra a los personajes invadiendo inconmesurablemente cada borde de la obra. "Yo era una mujer quemada, llena de llagas por dentro y por fuera y tu hijo era un poquito de agua de la que yo esperaba hijos, tierra, salud; pero el otro era un río oscuro, lleno de ramas, que acercaba a mí el rumor de sus juncos y su cantar entre dientes" (La Novia, Acto II Bodas de Sangre).

Review:

'This excellent edition is most welcome. A select bibliography, a brief vocabulary,  several footnotes to explain points of difficulty, fourteen long end notes ... and even the music of the songs, make the edition an extremely valuable and interesting volume, offering the reader the text of the play itself and important new insights into its structure, its significance and indeed its success.' --Modern Languages
