Alejandro Angulo Guridi (May 3, 1823 – January 17, 1906) was a Dominican writer and politician, who held the portfolios of Justice and Foreign Affairs. According to some historians, he wrote the first Dominican short story and probably also the first novel (although there is no evidence to support the latter).[1] His contributions to Dominican literature toom him throughout Latin America, making him perhaps one of the most infuencial Dominican writers of the 19th-century.
