Frederico Garcia Lorca. IN SEARCH OF DUENDE. Bibelot, 1975.
A remarkable find at the Rotary Book Sale. This book has been on my list for years, and it does not disappoint. Contains essays -- the famous exploration of duende and another on the sacredness of bullfighting -- as well as poems in both Spanish and English. Watching the Knowledge Network series on Andalusia has also been helpful with pronunciation of names and and location of places in Spain. Lorca, 1898 to 1936. Executed by firing squad during the Spanish Civil War.
