What Once Was Promised by Louis Trubiano

What One Was Promised is a multi-generational family saga that chronicles the diverse paths taken by three young Italian immigrants and one American-born Italian as they navigate the challenges presented them in early 20th century Boston. Love, friendship, treachery and betrayal are intertwined against a backdrop of political intrigue and decades long personal vendettas. In the end, the four old friends must come together to right a wrong visited upon them by those who have spent a lifetime fighting against them.


Targeted Age Group:: Adult
Heat/Violence Level: Heat Level 4 – R Rated

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
A strong interest in Boston history and my own grandfather’s personal experience in emigrating to Boston in 1914 formed the impetus to build this story about family ties in challenging times. During the decades covered in the story, Boston was rife with larger-than-life personalities from politicians to gangsters and filled momentous events that impact the characters.

How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
I wanted character that represented the diversity of paths chosen by Italian immigrants of the time. From anarchists and gangsters to ordinary workers and politicians, the characters represent a colorful tapestry of life in Boston’s Italian North End.
