Lorca is one of the greatest modern poets. His later and most
powerful works however remain elusive even to Lorca scholars. For
just as Lorca cannot be understood in isolation from the cultural
traditions of Spain and Andalusia, so it is also necessary to
appreciate the poet's vantage point as a gay person, if his meaning
is to be fully understood. The hinge of this stimulating and
emphatic study is Lorca's visit to New York in 1929. Many of the
tensions of his New York poems are show to be anticipated in his
earlier works. The book goes on to trace in Lorca's subsequent
writings the impact of his confrontation with the American
metropolis, and the sharpened awareness of a gay identity to which
this gave rise.
