Selected Verse: Revised Edition

Selected Verse: Revised Edition

<p><b>Selected verse from the poet who "expanded the scope of lyric poetry" (Rafael Campo, <i>The Washington Post</i>).</b></p><p>The work of Federico García Lorca, Spain's greatest modernist poet, has long been admired for its emotional intensity and metaphorical brilliance. The revised <i>Selected Verse</i>, which incorporates changes made to García Lorca's <i>Collected Poems</i>, is an essential addition to any poetry lover's bookshelf. In this bilingual edition, García Lorca's poetic range comes clearly into view, from the playful <i>Suites</i> and stylized evocations of Andalusia to the utter gravity and mystery of the final elegies, confirming his stature as one of the twentieth century's finest poets.</p>
