Blood Wedding by Federico Garcia Lorca is a classic of Spanish literature, the tragedy of a woman loved by two men. Lorca has a searing realization of the power of desire. Brendan Kennelly rises to the challenge of how to convey this in an English translation, in language at once soaring and accurate, wild and precise. His version of Blood Wedding reveals the mysterious, intricate, passionate, and truly astonishing nature of Lorca's masterpiece.
