I read this in English but took a peep at the Spanish alongside it so this review is for the A.S Kline translation. All in all, this is a brief but emotional play examining the way generations of women behave during an era of Spain polluted by religious conservatism. I am quite surprised at the conceptual complexity within this play given its shortness. Overall, effective and eye opening.

The book is heavily anti religion and promotes an agenda, having studied the book for school I can say it is one of the most monotonous I've ever read and constantly holds anti-catholic views.

Lo de leer teatro no va conmigo y los personajes son mujeres irritantes pero veo su atractivo, es en realidad una muy buena obra y está escrita de manera poética y, aunque extraña, bella.

El teatro de Lorca es el teatro de Lorca. Obra potente, con gran parte de su simbolismo contenido y a la vez desatado. Siempre me ha parecido un poco por debajo de 'Bodas de sangre', pero, claro, yo me enamoré del teatro con esa obra.
