This novel emerged from the imagination of Julia Alvarez, a Dominican born author who uses historical events and figures to tell the story of the Mirabel sisters. Three young Dominican women who were murdered in the 1960s for their involvement with a group of underground revolutionaries, the Mirabels get a voice in Alvarez's lucid prose.  (CRB92, $15.00)
