Collected Poems by García Lorca, Federico. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780374126247.

A revised edition of this major writers complete poetical work"And I who was walkingwith the earth at my waist,saw two snowy eaglesand a naked girl.The one was the otherand the girl was neither."--from "Qasida of the Dark Doves"Federico García Lorca is the greatest poet of twentieth-century Spain and one of the worlds most influential modernist writers. Christopher Maurer, a leading Lorca scholar and editor, has substantially revised FSGs earlier edition of the collected poems of this charismatic and complicated figure, who--as Maurer says in his illuminating Introduction--"spoke unforgettably of all that most interests us: the otherness of nature, the demons of personal identity and artistic creation, sex, childhood, and death."
