n the Spring Sonata, while in Italy, Bradomin is a young man who falls in love with a young girl destined to become a bride of Christ. To get over his unhappy love affairs, in the Summer Sonata Bradomin goes to Mexico but gets embroiled with a Yucatan princess married to a bandit-king. 'Each of the sonatas lavishly evoke a setting and climate as objective correlative for a woman, and an affair. Valle-Inclan's Don Juan is a self-conscious, self-mocking dandy; like all the best lovers, he is haunted and sad.' Katy Emck in The Times Literary Supplement
