"El maleficio de la mariposa" es una obra compleja en su gestación e inquietante en su resultado. Protagonizada por insectos, es un cuento que crea un poético juego modernista de escenas, vestuario y coreografía en una parábola en la que el autor quiere representar, mediante un planteamiento alegórico, la frustración y la impotencia de los sentimientos, de las aspiraciones, de las contradicciones y de la búsqueda de valores tanto suyos como de un mundo sin certidumbres. Esta edición ofrece el texto definitivo reconstruido a partir del facsímil manuscrito y de su transcripción depurada (que se ofrece completa), teniendo en cuenta las correcciones y variantes.

Federico García Lorca
Author · 58 books
Born in Fuente Vaqueros, Granada, Spain, June 5 1898; died near Granada, August 19 1936, García Lorca is one of Spain's most deeply appreciated and highly revered poets and dramatists. His murder by the Nationalists at the start of the Spanish civil war brought sudden international fame, accompanied by an excess of political rhetoric which led a later generation to question his merits; after the inevitable slump, his reputation has recovered (largely with a shift in interest to the less obvious works). He must now be bracketed with Machado as one of the two greatest poets Spain has produced in the 20th century, and he is certainly Spain's greatest dramatist since the Golden Age.
