«Les promesses du ciel et de la terre» is the historical novel by Claude Michelet, published by Pocket in paperback (416 pages, in French).
In 1871, after the Commune, Pauline and Antoine flee Paris and cross paths with Martial, a young wine merchant. The two couples emigrate to Chile, settle in Santiago and, like pioneers of the Wild West, travel the country in carts selling goods to indigenous people and prospectors, while the women open a business in the city.
It is the first volume of a trilogy; completed by «Pour un arpent de terre» and «Le grand sillon». Published in 1998.
A mainstream novel for those seeking historical and emigration sagas with a 19th-century backdrop.
Claude Michelet was an award-winning French author and film writer.
