| Summary, etc |
"The Pact: A Love Story (1998) by Jodi Picoult tells the story of teens Emily Gold and Chris Harte who enter into a pact to die by suicide. Emily’s death has taken place by the novel’s opening, but Chris is swiftly charged with her murder. As the novel unfolds, the complicated dynamics of the lives of the teens—lifelong best friends who grew up next door to one another—are presented. The nature of the “pact” that Chris entered is slowly revealed as the narrative challenges what it means to keep a promise.<br/><br/>Picoult, author of 28 novels and two young-adult books, is acclaimed for her layered plots ranging from everyday tensions—such as in parenthood and family dynamics—to the extraordinary, such as a protagonist who finds himself at the center of a modern-day witch hunt in Salem Falls (2001) or a child conceived to be a bone-marrow donor for a cancer-stricken sibling in My Sister’s Keeper (2004). Picoult’s novels tend to tackle contemporary issues, including school shootings, child abuse, and assisted suicide. In many of Picoult’s plots, conflicting viewpoints are hashed out on legal grounds. Picoult is the recipient of numerous awards, including a New England Bookseller Award for fiction, the New Hampshire Literary Award for Outstanding Literary Merit, and a Hale Award." --Provided by the publisher |
