«La casa de Bernarda Alba» is the theatrical drama by Federico García Lorca, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (164 pages, in Spanish).
Bernarda Alba imposes on her five daughters a rigorous eight-year mourning period after the death of her second husband. The isolation and repression ordered by the matriarch clash with the young women's desires for love and freedom, and the arrival of a suitor, Pepe el Romano, ignites jealousy and tension among the sisters until a tragic outcome. A work that portrays oppression, hypocrisy, and the struggle for autonomy in a rural, conservative Spain.
Essential for readers of classic Spanish theatre and for those studying the Generation of '27 or the work of Federico García Lorca.
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.
