I’m listening to the audiobook of In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez.Its based on real people in the time of the Trujillo Dictatorship in the Dominican Republic. Its a fictionalised account on the life of the Mirabal sisters who were executed by the regime in 1960.

And I just finished I Saw Her That Night by Slovenian author Drago Jančar. Its coincidentally also based on true events, in WW2 Slovenia. Honestly I read it, because I haven’t found any other books for the Slovenia category of my “Read around the world” challenge. I’m glad it wasn’t very long.

I hate capitalism.
