Gypsy Ballads

Written in a stylised version of the countryside ballads that proliferated at the time, the Gypsy Ballads propelled Lorca to overnight fame, and he soon became counted amongst Spain's finest poets. Later in his career his name became synonymous with the theatre, but this new edition of the 'Gypsy Ballads' returns the reader to where it all began. Presented here in a smart new translation, this edition is the perfect place to discover Lorca the Poet.
