Toda la obra de Federico García Lorca está rodeada de misterio, toda vez que las balas asesinas de Franco le arrebataron la vida. Y aún más aquellas partes de su obra que podemos considerar inacabadas. Es el caso de Sonetos del amor oscuro, el único texto conocido en el que el poeta habla abiertamente del amor entre dos hombres. Once composiciones de una belleza inigualable, escritas durante el último año de su vida, que no sabemos si iban a formar parte de un determinado conjunto o de qué forma Lorca las había concebido.

Imagine the poets Wallace Stevens and Anne Sexton met in a bar owned by Michael Robbins. The result might be News In A New World, the first published collection of poems by Tamara Tifareth. Jarringly profound, hilarious, and offensive, highly topical, always insightful, the poems combine a strong lyrical quality with a narrator's capacity for storytelling. In many of the pieces, Ms. Tifareth assumes a persona only to push its attitudes to the limits of sensibility, illustrating the absurdity of life.

The inspiration for this book was born years ago, when I encountered a man in his 70s. He opened my eyes to how he had been able to capture a seemingly hidden power to combat evils in the world and his body, such as illness and fear. I wondered how that could be possible. I thought hard and broke sweat over how the mind could help a person fight diseases and infections. He was gracious enough to oblige me his time and share some of his ‘secrets'. Some of these things you will be hearing are gleanings from my numerous conversations with him.

Orfeo, il mitico cantore che incantava qualsiasi cosa o creatura con la potenza della sua musica, sfiderà con essa il regno dei morti "infettandolo di vita". Tutto ciò per riportare alla luce la sua amata Euridice, morta per il morso di un serpente. Un viaggio dunque nell'ignoto che sfocerà nelle proprie emozioni e nelle proprie paure.

The title story, "The Waterfall", is a powerful study of loss, acceptance, and growth. In "Butterflies", a young boy learns a lesson about acceptance and appreciation of what he has been given. "The Lighthouse" is a moving tale that's as close to poetry as prose and offers a beautifully upbeat ending. "Grandma Brown" is a nostalgic and emotionally moving tale of familial love.

"Costernazione" rappresenta l'animo affranto del poeta. Descrive, quindi, la pena del poeta, il quale si ritrova solo e stranito in un "evo" che egli percepisce "disanimato", in cui perfino l'aria ha perso la sua antica linfa vitale, di cui egli ricorda le magnifiche fragranze bucoliche portatrici di benessere fisico e psicologico. Cosicché, egli si costerna nella consapevolezza di trovarsi in un'epoca priva di beltà.
