The Violin and the Grave: Selected Poems of Lorca

About This Novel

"Violins and Graves" contains 70 representative poems by Federico García Lorca, as well as two excerpts from plays. The selected passages were written in a period that spanned his entire creative career. Lorca is the most well-known Spanish writer in the world after Cervantes. His poems have long melody, delicate perception and wonderful imagination. They are a perfect combination of traditional and modern techniques. The emotions between the lines are lonely and passionate, blending extreme happiness and sadness. His poems and life are remembrances and expectations of a better era that Spain could have had. It was about staying humble and courageously resisting injustice through writing, speaking out for the voiceless people at the bottom of society, bringing theater art to the most remote rural countryside, and embracing the world from a national standpoint. After all, in the end, the definition of love is that one person embraces another person.
