In addition to a substantial introduction to the life and works of Federico García Lorca—avant-garde poet, playwright, and soul of Spain's "Generation of '27"—this collection features vibrant new English translations of four of his plays. The legacy of a dramatic, religious, and social iconoclast whose death made him a martyr of the left in Civil-War Spain and who today is embraced as a gay icon shines through in Michael Kidd's stage-worthy renderings of Yerma, Blood Wedding, The House of Bernarda Alba, and a more experimental play, The Audience, a kaleidoscopic exploration of sexual identity and theater.

Michael Kidd is Professor of Languages and Cross-Cultural Studies, Augsburg University.
"Kidd’s translations are excellent, both accurate and readable, and the biographical and critical guides are useful."
—Jonathan Mayhew, University of Kansas
