The Dominican Republic has an interesting history, filled with interesting characters, which is why many a writer has decided to try and fill in the gaps by constructing great historical novels based on these characters. Despots, heroines, presidents, genocide victims, a Taino chief and many others have inspired writers to tell us their stories. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about our selection.

El Masacre se Pasa a Pie
El Masacre se Pasa a Pie (Paperback)
Our Price: $39.80

Many academic books have been written about the massacre of Haitian immigrants ordered by Dominican despot Rafael Leonidas Trujillo in 1937, however, few books make it as personal as El Masacre se Pasa a Pie by Freddy Prestol Castillo.  The novel tries to answer the eternal question of "what is a person to do when utter fear of the government repressive machinery collapses against the moral duty of protecting the innocent from said government?".
