Promise at Down (Book)

La promesse de l'aube
Summary:

This book has been written by Romain Gary, a french author. It's an autobiography witch particularly treats about his special relation with one of the most important person of men's life this mother.

 

She was courageous and  and incredibly confident about his son's successful future. She wasn't only hopping the best for him but made all the possible for this result could happened.

 

Even after her death (3 years before of the end of the 2nd WW) she continues to support him. He knows what she was expecting for him and he struggles to become like she hopes and expected.

Opinion:

I did choose this book because the tittle is full of hope. Indeed, the author believe in humanity and never abandoned his idealistic hope for the future. Nor during the war, neither during the worst moment in his life he never feel lost.

 

During the lecture I was smiling because the ton was ironic even in the most dramatic situation. I recognized myself in many scenes and I imagined what I would have done if I was at his place.
