	The Modern Word - "The Feast of the Goat" Review
		The authoritarian excesses of Rafael Leonidas Trujillo Molina, the long standing military dictator of the Dominican Republic, suddenly were seen as an embarrassing political liability, an invitation to and excuse for Communist revolution.
		When Trujillo suddenly strips away the offices of Augustin Cabral, the father of Urania and a close Trujillo aide, Cabral responds not with rage at the groundlessness of his Kafkaesque punishment, but with the directionless terror of a child who has lost his parent.
		As history shows, the diminutive, cerebral Balaguer prevails, exiling the Trujillos and the monstrous Abbes, and transforming himself from a figurehead into “an authentic head of state.” In the novel, his list of accomplishments is impressive.

	Biografia de Rafael Leónidas Trujillo y Molina
		Rafael Leónidas Trujillo era comandante de la Guardia Nacional, un cuerpo militar creado por los Estados Unidos para preservar sus intereses en la isla.
		Trujillo ejerció hasta su muerte un poder dictatorial, si bien durante los años 1938-42 y 1952-61 se sirvió de intermediarios de su confianza para ocupar los principales puestos políticos (como su propio hermano Héctor Bienvenido, al que situó como presidente de la República y primer ministro en 1952).
		En su delirio de grandeza, Rafael Leónidas Trujillo llegó a cambiar el nombre de la capital dominicana, rebautizándola Ciudad Trujillo; construyó obras públicas enormes para perpetuar su memoria; y lanzó a su ejército a operaciones de intervención en otros países del Caribe.

		The majority of the writing which refers to Trujillo seems fall into two camps: either that written, for the most part, during the Trujillo era which sings his praises in an elaborate language so baroque as to touch on the ridiculous, or that written afterwards which tends to present him as uniformly and diabolically evil.
