The Promise of the Sea, by Arnaud de La Grange: repairing the living. A young man sets out to follow in the footsteps of the shipwreck that caused the death of his parents.

A beautiful story of reconciliation with life. Third novel by La Grang, after Les Vents Noirs(Grand Prix Jules Verne 2018) and Le Huitième Soir(Nimier Prize 2019), La Promesse du large is as much an investigation as a quest.
