really liked it

In The Time of The Butterflies meets One Hundred Years of Solitude. Two sisters' survival through a dictatorship, genocide, communism, World War I, racial inequalities, Hollywood scandals, French artists... all of them surrounded by men. Men are the problem.

Great story that tied in magical realism, where two sisters take very different paths after one is kidnapped at a young age. Really cool story and I loved the Spanish phrases sprinkled throughout, I feel like I think like this daily.
