«Yerma» is the tragic poem in three acts and six scenes by Federico García Lorca, published by Alianza in paperback (222 pages, in Spanish).
Yerma is a woman trapped between her desire to be a mother and a society that measures her worth by motherhood. The play portrays her growing desperation, the frustration of that longing and the social pressures that drag her to a tragic fate, in a drama about life, freedom and oppression.
The edition of «Yerma» by Mario Hernández establishes the text and adds interviews with the poet from 1934 and 1935. «Yerma» is number 161 of the El Libro de Bolsillo collection, Biblioteca García Lorca.
Suitable for literature students and for those approaching classic Spanish theatre or the work of Federico García Lorca.
