Author Alma Cruz knows what it's like to depend on her characters: a friend of hers sacrificed her health and relationships for her writing. But Alma doesn't want that fate for herself. After years of trying to complete the book of her life, she decides to bury the drafts on her plot of land in her native Dominican Republic. But the buried characters aren't about to leave her alone: they begin to speak—first in whispers, then increasingly louder. Local resident Filomena, gifted with the ability to listen and hear, becomes the guardian of these resurrected narratives, and the literary cemetery becomes a place where a generation of the nameless can finally tell their stories without fear.

Julia Alvarez, author of the international bestseller "The Time of the Butterflies," is a polyphonic tale of memory, love, and the power of words to conquer.
