Coplas Apenas

A whisper of verses in the form of copla, where the popular soul and the most intimate poetry dialogue in the precise brevity of each word. Coplas barely returns years later as a revised and expanded work, with new coplas that exude nostalgia, love, disappointment and that lyrical truth that beats between joy and melancholy. Antonio García Barbeito, one of the most representative voices of the rural essence and Andalusian poetic roots, invites us once again to travel along paths of loneliness, memories and eternal passions. His writing captures like few others the language of the countryside, of the people, and transforms it into universal poetry. This edition, enriched with new verses and subjected to a meticulous revision, revives the intensity of the everyday elevated to the absolute. Each copla is a flash of popular wisdom and literary sensitivity, capable of capturing the depths of human feeling in just three verses.
