This is an incredible play, and it is hard to imagine that it was written so long ago, for it has an everlasting effect... It deals with culture, bitterness, love, loss, tragedy and family.It is above all a book about the great expectations a young girl has with life, and how her mother and sisters destroy them. It is a sad tale, but it is written in such a powerful way that you simply cannot put the book down without finishing it.Es un libro conmovedor que hable de la cultura, la familia, la tragedia, la separacion y el amor...Los personajes son muy reales, crudos y a veces muy crueles.Habla sobre una joven y sus suenos, asi como las consecuencias de sonar y de querer lograr mas de lo que se esperado.Es una historia triste y tragica pero escrita y manejada de una manera incomparable por un escritor brillante.
i have read this play 3 times in classes for spanish language literature, and i just can't get enough. it is tough at times, vocabulary and such, BUT well worth it! tugs at the heartstrings and takes a good look at the way women were treated and considered in those times. buena suerte y si alguien quiere platicar conmigo de esta obra, mandame un email a tcherepashka@aol.com!
This could be considered as Federico Garcia Lorca's best work, and is highlighted in "The New Essential Guide to Spanish Reading" published by America Reads Spanish, a campaign aimed to increase the use and reading of the Spanish language through the thousands of libraries, schools and book stores in the US. The guide states, "Considered to be Lorca's highest dramatic achievement, besides being one of the most well-known and dramatized works of the Spanish theater. The subtitle of the play is Drama of women in the villages of Spain. It focuses on the life of an Andalusian family in which the protagonist exercises a cruel tyranny over her five daughters. This drama explores the themes of repression, passion and nonconformity in a rural feminine world. It is worth noting the apparent simplicity of the work counterpoised against its enormous thematic complexity."
