About this product
Product Information
"Un libro importante...emocionalmente sobrecogedor. lvarez nos hace un regalo cargado de rara generosidad y coraje."-- The San Diego Union-Tribune In 1960 in the Dominican Republic, four young women from a pious Catholic family were assassinated after visiting their husbands who had been jailed as suspected rebel leaders. The Mirabal sisters became mythical figures in their country, where they are known as Las Mariposas (the butterflies). Three decades later, lvarez brings the Mirabal sisters back to life in an extraordinary novel. Ellas eran las cuatro hermanas Mirabal--s mbolos de una esperanza desafiante en un pa s ensombrecido por la dictadura y la desesperaci n. Sacrificaron sus vidas, seguras, y confortables, en nombre de la libertad. Ellas eran "las Mariposas," y en esta novela extraordinaria, Patria, Minerva, Maria Teresa, y Ded nos cuentan, a trav s de las d cadas, sus propias historias. Desde an cdotas sobre lazos para el pelo y secretos enamoramientos al contrabando de armas y las torturas en la c rcel. Con ellas aprendemos los horrores cotidianos de la vida bajo el dictador dominicano Trujillo. A trav s del arte y la magia de la aclamada e imaginativa novelista Julia lvarez, la dram tica y vibrante vida de estas martirizadas mariposas toma forma en una historia c lida, brillante y desgarradora en la que se nos muestra el incalculable coste humando derivado de la opresi n pol tica. "Un regalo de amor sinf nico y espl ndido...un magn fico tesoro para todas las culturas y todos los tiempos...una novela que celebra la corriente de vida que fluye entre las mujeres, conect ndolas y d ndolas coraje para luchar por la justicia y la resistencia, y corazones para amar y perdonar libremente...Julia lvarez es una escritora asombrosa."-- St. Petersburg Times "Maravilloso...una narraci n enriquecedora...entrelaza h bilmente la realidad y la ficci n hasta alcanzar un sobrecogedor cl max."-- Newsweek "Una novela con un tremendo poder... un libro bello y valiente."-- West Coast Review of Books
