Lorca: The Theatre Beneath The Sand

The work collected here is drawn from lectures, essays and journalism. Ranging in tone from academic speculation to bare-knuckle polemic, with the occasional gleam of personal reminiscence, they interweave to form a vision of a decade in which the habits of centuries were hurled, by choice, into reverse. Defining the role of the writer in society was no longer an abstract theme to stir debate, but a pressing and dangerous necessity. The world of letters had to confront the urgent need to open up the franchise, hand over the levers and the engines of power: the need to reinvent an entire continent.
