| 520 | |a The very first graphic edition of the internationally bestselling modern-day classic about three brave sisters fighting against dictatorship, illustrated by award-winning artist Krystal Quiles. Set during the waning days of Trujillo's rule in the Dominican Republic, In the Time of the Butterflies was inspired by the true story of the three Mirabal sisters, known as Las Mariposas, or the Butterflies, who were murdered on November 25, 1960, for their part in an underground plot to overthrow the government. First published in 1994, the historical novel went on to receive wide acclaim, being nominated for the 1994 National Book Critical Circle Award, adapted into a feature film in 2001 starring Salma Hayek, and selected for the National Endowment for the Arts' reading program, The Big Read. Today, In the Time of the Butterflies has sold over a million copies in all formats and is known as a modern classic. This magnificently illustrated edition of the 1994 novel reintroduces readers to the Mirabal sisters and renders these historical figures as they've never been seen before. A longtime reader of Alvarez, illustrator Krystal Quiles has honored the literary icon's portrayal of the sisters' teenage years, their resistance against Trujillo's rule, and their terror as their involvement in the revolution is revealed. This is a stunning rendition of a beloved classic, sure to captivate a new generation of readers. | ||
