Collected Poems: Revised Bilingual Edition, Paperback

Descriere

A revised edition of this major writer's complete poetical work And I who was walkingwith the earth at my waist, saw two snowy eaglesand a naked girl. The one was the otherand the girl was neither. -from ""Qasida of the Dark Doves""Federico Garcia Lorca is the greatest poet of twentieth-century Spain and one of the world's most influential modernist writers. Christopher Maurer, a leading Garcia Lorca scholar and editor, has substantially revised FSG's earlier edition of the collected poems of this charismatic and complicated figure, who-as Maurer says in his illuminating introduction-""spoke unforgettably of all that most interests us: the otherness of nature, the demons of personal identity and artistic creation, sex, childhood, and death.""
