THE PROMISE - DAMON GALGUT KARTONIERT (TB)

WINNER OF THE BOOKER PRIZE 2021 One family. One promise. One chance to tell a new story. 'A
moving  brilliantly told family epic' Elizabeth Day THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER On a farm
outside Pretoria  the Swarts are gathering for Ma's funeral. The younger generation  Anton and
Amor  detest everything the family stand for - not least their treatment of the Black woman who
has worked for them her whole life. Salome was to be given her own house  her own land...yet
somehow  that vow is carefully ignored. As each decade passes  and the family assemble again 
one question hovers over them. Can you ever escape the repercussions of a broken promise? 'A
tour de force... A spectacular demonstration of how the novel can make us see and think afresh'
Booker Judges  2021 'Astonishing' Colm Tóibín 'Utterly compelling' Patrick Gale
