Recent release 'Fifteen Promises' from Covenant Books author TD Desso is an evoking novella that reveals a woman's resilience during painful moments of slavery and her yearning for freedom for herself and those like her.
NEW YORK, August 8, 2019 (Newswire.com) - TD Desso, a historical fiction author, career student of English and theology, and loving husband and father of two, has completed his new book, “Fifteen Promises”: a timeless narrative that shares a nineteenth-century slave woman’s grapple with sorrows caused by her status that inspires an eagerness in her soul to rise above the toil for the sake of her loved ones.
Desso writes, “We all search for ways to escape pain. Laura, a slave living in the nineteenth century, knows this better than anyone. Her owner promises any of his female servants freedom if she gives birth to fifteen healthy slaves. The suffering that Laura endures makes this proposal all the more enticing, but she must not allow her desire for freedom to betray her own children and forsake them in bondage. Nor can she allow her own soul to become clay—molded, spinning, and pressed on the wheel of human suffering.”
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, TD Desso’s new book profoundly instills significant virtues of appreciation and understanding for all women and their dream of achieving peace and love.
Readers will follow the life of Laura, a slave plagued by broken promises and neglect, and how she is depicted as a reflection of past and modern-day abuse against women that must be addressed and be put to an end.
Readers can purchase “Fifteen Promises” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.
