Our own Matilda has written a wonderful book about the DR, and the first copies are off the press and on their way to bookstores around the world. The official release date, ironically, is on 27 de Febrero, very serendipitous if you ask me. It's called "What About Your Saucepans", and I was privileged to read an advance copy of the book.
It's in a class by itself, this is no tour guide and no 'how to do DR' book. It is a non-fiction account of the events in her life over the past 10 or so years. To say it's a page-tuner doesn't do it justice. Although I already knew most of the incredible stories she relates, I was unable to put it down and go to bed. It's also an unvarnished insider's view of Dominican politics, the down and dirty underside of what goes on during elections. It's also an portrait view of Dominican life, culture and family.
Amazon.com has it available for preorder, and I understand there will be a Kindle version soon. I know it will available for purchase in the US, Canada and UK very soon, but I don't know those details yet.
Here's the link to the book, with some additional information:
