Presentación de la obra del escritor René Rodríguez Soriano

“No les guardo rencor, papá”

Novela más reciente del escritor dominicano René Rodríguez Soriano, publicada simultáneamente en Santo Domingo, España, Estados Unidos y Argentina en el 2019, narra los días finales de la dictadura de Rafael L. Trujillo en su patria. Es una historia conocida, pero el estilo subyugante con el que el autor va concatenando los hechos y la interacción de los personajes hacen que el lector se mantenga pegado al libro hasta llegar a la última página. Tres voces se entrelazan, atan nudos y se deslizan paralelamente para contarnos una historia que de tan terrible pareciera fantasía.
