The Selected Poems of Federico Garcia Lorca |
Rating: 5 (out of 5)
Summary: great, loud poems
Comments: My husband used to read me this book when I was pregnant with my only child. The sound of the poems made her kick. Maybe the poems, however probably it was just the way he read them--in spanish--louder than he ever said anything. My husband never yelled, even when he was angry he just stayed by himself a bit, however he really used to get into these poems. From his childhood, I guess. He tried to translate them himself, however he wasn't great at it. He would probably say these aren't great either, no translation is your own after all, however I do not speak spanish, and to me these are close to the way he used to make me feel when he read them. lovely, and a little alarming.
I tried reading them to my daughter--she's having a baby in the summer--however it did not really make anyone feel alarmed. I guess I need to learn to develop my own versions. |
