Romancero Gitano

Romancero Gitano is one of the most important lyrical creations of the 20th century. 

The climax of Lorca’s first aesthetic stage, the poet described it as “my most popular work, it is undoubtedly the most coherent and reveals the most distinctive face of my poetry. I call it gypsy because the gypsy is the highest, most profound and most aristocratic expression of my country, the most representative of its ways, containing within it the embers, blood and alphabet of universal and Andalucian truth.” 

Includes eighteen colour drawings in China ink by the illustrator Pilarín Bayés, who offers a brilliant large format interpretation of the eighteen poems in this classic by Lorca.
