Much of García Lorca's work was filled with popular themes such as Flamenco and Gypsy culture. In 1922 García Lorca organized the first "Cante Jondo" festival in which Spain's most famous "deep song" singers and guitarists performed. The deep song style permeated his poems of the early 1920s. During this period García Lorca became part of a group of artists known as Generación del 27 which included Salvador Dalí and Luis Buñuel who introduced the young poet to surrealism. In 1928 his book of verse Romancero Gitano "The Gypsy Ballads" brought Lorca much fame and it was reprinted seven times during his lifetime. Ediciones Mexicanas, S. en P. paperback
