Description

Federico García Lorca's Blood Wedding is a powerful and poignant play that explores the complexities of desire, repression, and ritual in rural Spanish communities. Based on a newspaper fragment, the story delves into the constraints and commitments of these societies, revealing a world of violence and pathos. Ted Hughes's translation stays true to Lorca's original vision, fusing his poetic style with the playwright's to create a rich and evocative text that captures the essence of the play for an English-speaking audience. With its direct and unflinching portrayal of human emotion, Blood Wedding is a thought-provoking drama that continues to resonate with readers today. This edition features 72 pages of Lorca's masterful work in paperback format.
