Lorca After Life
«“Brilliant and meticulously researched.”—Luis Fernández Cifuentes, Times Literary Supplement
“Valis is adept at exposing the ins and outs of powerful but slippery concepts. Was Lorca… Spain’s “poet of the people”, as both the right and left claimed?” —Luis Fernandez Cifuentes, Times Literary Supplement
2023 PROSE Award winner in the Literature category
“A galaxy of critical insights into the cultural shock waves circling and crisscrossing Lorca’s execution and his unknown resting place, there is not a single book on Lorca like this one.”—Andrés Zamora, Vanderbilt University
“An example of cultural history at its best, Valis’s superbly written exploration of Lorca’s contested afterlives demonstrates once again why she is our leading scholar of modern Spanish letters.”—Gustavo Pérez Firmat, Columbia University
“Noël Valis elucidates the enduring appeal of the great Andalusian writer. Arguing that the bold nature of his gifts could not have been adequately appreciated in his brief life, she maintains that only the vastness of death can accommodate our growing understanding of Lorca’s innovative accomplishments.”—Jaime Manrique, author of Eminent Maricones
