About this listen

Vivas en su jardín is the memoir of the only survivor of the Mirabal sisters, killed by Dominican dictator Rafael Trujillo, an event made famous by Julia Álvarez in her book In the Time of the Butterflies. Four sisters (known as the Butterflies) founded a movement defying Trujillo’s dictatorship, and three died for their beliefs. Dedé Mirabal gives readers unparalleled insight into the lives of three modern heroines.

El testimonio valiente y vibrante de la única sobreviviente de las Hermanas Mirabal, asesinadas cruelmente por el tirano Rafael Leónidas Trujillo. Dedé Mirabal nos cuenta la verdadera historia de Patria, Minerva y María Teresa y de la férrea lucha de sus hermanas por vivir en libertad y de sus esfuerzos junto a un pueblo oprimido por una sangrienta dictadura.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Artículo destacado: Redescubre tu identidad latina con estos audiolibros


Es fundamental conservar la propia identidad cultural, pues se trata de uno de los rasgos que nos identifican como individuos y nos posicionan en el contexto familiar y social. Toda persona se enfrenta al reto de integrarse de la mejor manera posible en el nuevo país, pero sin por ello reprimir o erradicar los hábitos que siempre han formado parte de la propia identidad. Se lleva la identidad latinoamericana en uno mismo, en las tradiciones y costumbres.

Happy to have found this book

I haven't finished this yet but it will take me a while (I'm listening in Spanish to learn the language better) and I wanted to write the review quickly. So far I'm really intrigued by this book. Anyone who has read "En el tiempo de las mariposas" should love this story as well-sad as it is-and it's amazing that there is actually an introduction by Dedé Miraba herself. I've listened to it over and over again and it's priceless. With as few great selections as there are in Spanish to listen to, I'm thrilled to have found this. Me encanta. Es precioso.

May their memories live for ever!

What a powerful narrative of the brave Mirabal sisters, what they and so many others sacrificed for the freedom of the Dominican Republic and the end of the dictatorship of Joaquín Balaguer and the disgrace of Rafael Trujillo. As I like to say “You may quiet the body by death but you will never silence the spirit or truth”
Thank you Dede for telling their story and having the strength with your mother to continue to fight the fight and raise tour sister’s children, how I would have loved to spend hours in their garden with you!
