| Description: |
Includes the plays "The House of Bernarda Alba", "Yerma", and "Blood Wedding". These plays appeal for freedom and sexual and social equality. |
| Synopsis: |
In The House of Bernarda Alba, a tyrannical matriarch rules over her house and five daughters, cruelly crushing their hopes and needs. The other plays here also portray female characters whose desires are tragically and violently frustrated: a woman's longing for a child in Yerma, and a bride's yearning for her lover in Blood Wedding. All appeal for freedom and sexual and social equality, and are also passionate defences of the imagination: in Christopher Maurer's words, `poetic drama unsurpassed by any writer of our time'. |
