"Poet in New York" is one of Federico García Lorca's most iconic works, written during his stay in New York between 1929 and 1930. This collection of poems reflects the profound impression that the city and the economic crisis of the time left on the author, addressing themes such as loneliness, dehumanization, and social injustice.
The facsimile edition faithfully reproduces the original 1940 edition, released by Editorial Séneca in Mexico. This edition includes four original drawings by Lorca, a poem by Antonio Machado, and a prologue by José Bergamín, offering an authentic experience that closely reflects the author's original intentions.
This is an invaluable opportunity for poetry lovers and scholars of García Lorca's work, as it allows them to appreciate the historical and artistic context in which "Poet in New York" was created. The inclusion of original elements, such as the drawings and the prologue, enriches the understanding of the author's vision of modernity and its challenges.
