Summary

Poeta en Nueva York es la obra personalísima, cumbre de la poesía surrealista, y una experiencia poética única. Escrito por Federico García Lorca durante su estancia en la Universidad de Columbia, en Nueva York, entre 1929 y 1930, y durante un viaje a Cuba, es una obra ambiciosa y compleja que, mediante un lenguaje popular y algunas de las imágenes más sorprendentes, vehementes y hermosas de la poesía en español, suscita fuertes sentimientos y denuncia la injusticia y la deshumanización de las sociedades modernas, que contrapone a la naturaleza. En sus poemas conviven reflexiones, emociones y conflictos personales del autor con una crítica directa a la realidad que le rodea, mientras reivindica a quienes se aferran a su humanidad. En ese sentido, Lorca no oculta su predilección por los que sufren, por los desfavorecidos, por la minoría negra, o por los niños. Poeta en Nueva York es una de las obras más originales e importantes de la Generación del 27.

Poeta en Nueva York is a highly personal work, the pinnacle of surrealist poetry, and a unique poetic experience. Written by Federico García Lorca during his stay at Columbia University in New York, between 1929 and 1930, and during a trip to Cuba, it is an ambitious and complex work that, through popular language and some of the most surprising, vehement and beautiful images of poetry in Spanish, arouses strong feelings and denounces the injustice and dehumanization of modern societies, which he contrasts with nature. In his poems, reflections, emotions and personal conflicts of the author coexist with a direct criticism of the sorrounding reality, while vindicating those who defend their own humanity. In this sense, Lorca does not hide his predilection for those who suffer, for the disadvantaged, for the black minority, or for children. Poeta en Nueva York is one of the most original and important works of the Generation of '27.
