«Bodas de sangre» is the play by Federico García Lorca, published by Espasa in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
Written in verse and prose, it is set in the Spanish countryside and revolves around a bride who, on the eve of her wedding, remains tied to Leonardo, an old love. The clash between passion and social conventions fuels a tragic atmosphere populated by symbols such as blood and knives, and the work combines lyricism, folklore and fatality.
Edition from the Austral Collection with an introduction by Fernando Lázaro Carreter; the work was originally published in 1932.
Ideal reading for those approaching the classics of Spanish theater and Lorca's dramatic poetry.
Federico del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús García Lorca was a Spanish poet, playwright, and theatre director.
