El Romancero Gitano de Federico García Lorca es, sin duda alguna, el libro de poemas más popular del siglo XX en castellano. Lorca maneja el idioma con habilidad sorprendente, con una "facilidad difícil" para literaturizar la realidad, conviertiéndola en narrativa poé la muerte de Antonio Camborio a manos de sus cuatro primos, la persecución de las tribus gitanas por la Guardia Civil, los pechos de dura plata de Soledad Montoya, el erotismo presente de La casada infiel, son algunos de los motivos y los temas que perviven en la memoria popular.

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.
