Con una cucharale arrancaba los ojos a los cocodrilosy golpeaba el trasero de los monos. Con una cuchara. Fuego de siempre dormía en los pedernales y los escarabajos borrachos de anísolvidaban el musgo de las aldeas. Aquel viejo cubierto de setasiba al sitio donde lloraban los negrosmientras crujía la cuchara del rey y llegaban los tanques de agua podrida. Federico García Lorca fue un poeta y dramaturgo español nacido en 1868 en Fuente Vaqueros, Granada. Perteneciente a la Generación del 27, se relacionó con muchos de los escritores e intelectuales más importantes de España, como Luis Buñuel, Rafael Alberti o Salvador Dalí.

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.
