The House Of Bernarda Alba And Other Plays by Federico García Lorca
A searing cycle of rural tragedies set in early-20th-century Spain, these plays portray women trapped by social conventions—stifled by rigid honor codes, suffocating family control and enforced mourning—whose thwarted desires and passions erupt into jealousy, violence and fatal consequences; blending folk ritual, lyrical imagery and stark symbolism, the works expose the destructive force of repression and the collision between individual longing and oppressive social order.
