Revue de presse :
"A gripping, beautiful story of loyalties and hidden loves. Ann Weisgarber's pitch-perfect characters will break your heart and keep you guessing right to the very end"--Carol Rifka Brunt, New York Times bestselling author of Tell The Wolves I'm Home
"Set against the worst natural disaster in twentieth century American history, The Promise is a riveting tale, told in lean luminous prose, of the power of love and the frailty of the human condition. Weisgarber knows storms, those that devastate the land and those that rage in the human heart. Her characters will live in your imagination long after you've turned the last deeply moving page"--Ellen Feldman, author of Next to Love and Scottsboro
"This is a warm and beautiful read, but be warned you might need to have a box of tissues handy!"
