Amor de Don Perlimplín con Belisa en su jardín

Federico García Lorca

Cátedra, 1990 - Drama - 296 pages

Víctima de aparentes intrigas, pérdidas inexplicables de manuscritos sucesivos, incautada por la policía y retenida durante años, "Amor de Don Perlimplín" es, sin embargo, una auténtica joya de las Letras Hispánicas. La edición incluye la versión facsímil y la transcripción literal.

About the author

Federico del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús García Lorca was born in a small town west of Granada, Spain, on June 5, 1898. He was a poet and playwright. His collections of poetry included Gypsy Ballads and Poet in New York. His plays included The Butterfly's Evil Spell, The Shoemaker's Prodigious Wife, Don Perlimplin, Blood Wedding, Yerma, and The House of Bernarda Alba. In 1936, he was assassinated by an anti-communist death squad during the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. Franco's regime placed a ban on Lorca's work and this was not lifted until 1953. It was not until Franco died that Lorca's work could be openly discussed in Spain.
