"This book appeared in Spain as counter-discourse against prevailing ideological structures. Engaging with homosexuality as an imperative source of meaning in artistic work, this volume studies the works of Federico García Lorca and his marginalized homosexual contemporaries. This new updated translation offers English-speaking readers the opportunity to focus on formal aspects of literary expressions of homosexuality"--Provided by publisher.
