Ambientada en los últimos días de la dictadura de Trujillo en la República Dominicana en 1960, esta extraordinaria novela cuenta la historia de las hermanas Mirabal, tres jóvenes esposas y madres que son asesinadas después de visitar a sus maridos encarcelados. A través del arte y la magia de la imaginación de Julia Alvarez, las Mariposas martirizadas reviven en esta novela de coraje y amor, y el costo humano de la opresión política.
