📖 Synopsis

A bride flees with her former love on her wedding day and blood calls to blood. Lorca, desire and death in verse.

✍️ ChatZona's review

The most powerful tragedy in twentieth-century Spanish theatre. Lorca concentrates in three acts the conflict between desire and social law, with language that shifts between rural prose and verse without warning. The wedding, the flight, the forest: everything converges towards an inevitable ending the reader senses from the first page. Reading the text on the page is a different experience from seeing it on stage, but equally valid. Essential for understanding the Spanish dramatic tradition.
