Colour illustrated paperback binding with white coloured titles to the front panel and black coloured titles to the backstrip. The last four plays of Federico Garcia Lorca, offering a very personal, and disturbing, vision of the world to the Spanish audiences in the 1930s. "The ill-fated lovers of Blood Wedding, the desolate Yerma, the fading spinster Rosita, and Bernarda Alba's abused household of women all inhibit a familiar Andalusia. Their predicaments are starkly plotted, with a stagecraft rooted in classical the applicable tradition." – from the rear panel blurb.
