But the execution was an external event, not necessarily an internal exorcism. All their lives my parents, along with a nation o

f Dominicans, had learned the habits of repression, censorship, terror. Those habits would not disappear with a few bullets and a national liberation proclamation. They would not disappear on a plane ride north that put hundreds of miles distance between the Island and our apartment in New York.
And so, long after we had left, my parents were still living in the dictatorship inside their own heads.

Silence about anything "political" was the rule in our house.
