ResumoRafael Alberti's enigmatic Sobre los angeles has attracted surprisingly little close critical attention: while not stinting their praises, critics have tended to stay at a safe distance from it, retiring either behind the by now elastic adjective “surrealist” or behind vague generalizations such as that “Sobre los angeles is concerned with a terrible crisis in which Alberti finds that for no explicable reason he has lost his trust in himself and his hold on existence…”. An exception is L. F. Vivanco, whose opinions carry more weight than most because of his friendship with Alberti in the 1920's, when Sobre los angeles was in gestation.
