This volume of his visual art - largely unknown - and his writing chronicles Lorca's short existence, beginning with poems of his. Childhood and ending with his prophesies of assassination. The work illuminates his vision of nature, the gypsies of southern Spain, his experiences in New York, and, above all, his sense of the mystery of love and death.

Originally designed for performance in Readers Theatre, Only Mystery may be appreciated as both a dramatic text for performance and an. Illustrated narrative of the poet's lyrical world.
