«La casa de Bernarda Alba» is the play by Federico García Lorca, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (184 pages, in Spanish).
After the death of her second husband, Bernarda Alba imposes a strict mourning period on her five daughters, keeping them shut up in the house under her iron authority. The arrival of Pepe el Romano, fiancé of the eldest daughter, fuels rivalry among the sisters and Adela's repressed desire, precipitating a tragic outcome.
Written in 1936, the play bears the subtitle «Drama de mujeres en los pueblos de España». The edition by Mario Hernández belongs to the collection El Libro de Bolsillo - Biblioteca García Lorca (no. 163).
A classic of twentieth-century Spanish theatre, it is standard reading in schools and universities and a natural gateway to Lorca's dramatic work.
Federico del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús García Lorca was a Spanish poet, playwright, and theatre director. García Lorca achieved international recognition as an emblematic member of the Generation of '27, a group consisting mostly of poets who introduced the tenets of European movements into Spanish literature.
