Description
“A Promise at Dawn” is not only a gripping adventure novel, but a true retelling of Romain Gary’s life, now a world classic.
It’s not only about the moves and wanderings, the falls and failures, the losses and awards of the main character, but also about the figure of a mother who foretold her son’s literary triumph, fame, high titles, women’s love—and left him no chance to live any other fate. French General Consul, two-time Goncourt Prize laureate, and a Knight of the Order of the Legion of Honour—Romain Gary fulfilled all her hopes, even the most incredible and exaggerated ones.
“A Promise at Dawn” is a piercing autobiography by the writer and the strongest statement about the relationship between mother and son in world literature. It is a story that will knock the ground out from under you, won’t leave anyone indifferent, and will change your view of life forever.
It’s also one of actor Anatoly Bely’s favorite books—a book he’d long dreamed of reading.
