| Synopsis | Retrato hablado commemorates the centennial of Ramón López Velarde's death. Throughout the play, the writer's ghost recalls a dialogue that took place a century earlier between two young students and Miguel Casasola, as they wait for the poet in the photographer’s studio, where he is about to have is portrait taken. Said dialogue and the ghost's monologues present key moments in the life of López Velarde, dubbed the “national poet”, as well as passages that are representative of his literary opus. The book includes an appendix with bibliographical notes on the edition of López Velarde’s works. |
