The Boat Is on the Sea, the Horse Is in the Mountains: Lorca's Poems (Gomai Classics)

In the world of poetry, America has Whitman, Chile has Neruda, Britain has Yeats, and Spain has Lorca. For the Spaniards, Lorca is the eternal "Son of Andalusia". With a pure and passionate heart, he sang the praises of Andalusia's clear springs, fragrant orange flowers, vast sea, and brilliant starry sky. His poems contain the soul of Spain. On August 19, 1936, Lorca, who was only 38 years old, was shot dead for opposing fascist rebels. Lorca's death is a wound that is difficult to heal in modern Spanish history. This book contains 31 of Lorca's handed down works, using Dai Wangshu's classic translation highly praised by the famous poet Bei Dao. It also includes Bei Dao's 20,000-word essay, telling the legendary life of Lorca and analyzing his poetic art and his huge influence on the Chinese poetry world. Equipped with Lorca's precious historical photos and painting manuscripts officially authorized by the Lorca Foundation, it presents the romance and innocence of Lorca's poetry to readers.
