Exploring the complex themes of desire in Federico Garcia Lorca's poetry, this work delves into the contradictions present in his verses. It analyzes how Lorca's experiences and cultural context shape his exploration of love, longing, and identity. Through a detailed examination of his poetic techniques and imagery, the book reveals the depth of emotion and the interplay between personal and societal influences in Lorca's work, highlighting his unique contribution to literature and the enduring relevance of his themes.

A generous selection and fresh translation of Lorca's suites, work that might have taken its place beside Songs (1927) and Poem of the Deep Song (1931) as a trilogy of Lorca's early modernist lyric. More personal than the other two works, Lorca's suites explore a `heart without echo' in his time.
