Book
'Yerma' is one of three tragic plays about peasants and rural life that make up Lorca's rural trilogy. It follows a woman's Herculean struggle against the curse of infertility. The woman's barrenness becomes a metaphor for her marriage in a traditional society that denies women sexual or social equality.
