The life of Garcia Lorca, born in 1898 in the Andalusian province of Granada and murdered in 1936, has drawn attention and empathy, before every precise memory of it was to be erased during the decades of Franco's rule. Lorca was a figure of great charisma from a young age. His diverse talent could not remain silent and sought other forms of expression beyond poetry and theater. He was an excellent pianist, played the guitar, and was also a talented draftsman. Lorca has been called a total artist; he wanted to measure the truth and vitality of his creations by the direct public reaction. This volume contains a selection and translation by Enrique Beck of poems, including those from the collections "Book of Poems," "First Songs," and "Diwan of Tamarit.".
