Ces poèmes ont été écrits à la suite d'un séjour du poète aux États-Unis durant l'année 1929. Ils n'ont été que partiellement publiés quatre ans après sa mort en 1940. Tout Lorca brûle en filigrane : le musicien, le poète charmeur, l'amoureux blessé et contrarié, le révolutionnaire, dans ces vers qui ont d'abord la couleur éclatante d'un cri de liberté.

Bodas de sangre by Federico García Lorca ( Book )
502 editions published between 1905 and 2011 in 24 languages and held by 1,862 libraries worldwide
Lorca's Blood Wedding is a classic of twentieth-century theatre. The story is based on a newspaper fragment which told of a family vendetta and a bride who ran away with the son of the enemy family. Lorca uses it to investigate the subjects which fascinated him: desire, repression, ritual, and the constraints and commitments of the rural Spanish community in which the play is rooted. Ted Hughes's version stays close in spirit and letter to the original Spanish. With marvellous directness, he fuses Lorca's vision to his own, and the result is a powerful poetic text which captures all the violence and pathos of the play for an English-speaking audience.

Three tragedies : Blood wedding, Yerma, Bernarda Alba by Federico García Lorca ( Book )
40 editions published between 1941 and 2006 in English and Undetermined and held by 1,200 libraries worldwide
[This book contains] three tragic dramas.... Blood wedding [is] concerned with love that cannot become marriage among the primitive hill people of Castile. This is a play of the working of tremendous passions and tribal ritual toward an inescapable tragic end. Yerma [is] the whole tragic burden of Yerma [as] measured by the deepening of her struggle with the problem of frustrated motherhood. The House of Bernarda Alba [is] again about "women whom love moves to tragedy," [as] Bernarda Alba tells of the repression of five daughters by a domineering mother, of how their natural spirits circumvent her but bring violence and death. -Back cover.
