Title: Trujillo, and his team of sadistic sycophantic goons
Review: Beautifully written historical novel that not only exposes the Trujillo regime (1930-1961), but also weaves in a narrative of a daughter who cannot forgive her father. You'll have to wait til the end of the book to find out why. Also included is the story of the rebels who took Trujillo out.To think that some people in the Dominican supported Trujillo is sickening. Of course, he enjoyed US support for his his "anti-communist" stance, all the while, brutally torturing and killing those who questioned his regime. Toward the end, the US put pressure on him because he fought with the Catholic Church.
