In our first full episode, Anna and Katia talk about the poem Romance sonámbulo by Federico García Lorca. You can read the poem in Spanish, and in the English translation by William Bryant Logan, here.

The title can be translated as “Sleepwalking Ballad.” First published in the Revista de Occidente in 1928, the poem appears in Lorca’s Romanerco Gitano (Gypsy Ballads) published the same year.

If you’d like to read an extraordinary analysis of the poem, see this essay by Jose Antonio Serrano Segura.

We expect to post this episode by Jan. 23.
