Beskrivelse
Life in Acadia could not be better for Louis and Emmeline. The promise of shunshine and happiness lies ahead. They are deeply in love. A new log cabin and farmland, their Beaubassin, awaits them where they will share their love and raise a family. But three days before their wedding, a storm of terror tears their tranquil world apart. An entire nation is scattered to the winds. Emmeline's last words to Louis before they part are 'Remember, my love. Beyond the storm, the sun still shines.' They are put on separate ships, not knowing what part of the world the other may find themselves. Louis endures untold hardship and suffering on his quest to find Emmeline. A quest that takes him from a British prison in Halifax to the tormenting heat and toil of building a French seaport in the Caribbean. Finally his odyssey takes him to Louisiana searching for the sunshine beyond the storm. Longfellow, in his epic.'Evangeline,' follows Evangeline's (Emmeline LaBiche)search for Gabriel (Louis Arceneaux). This is Louis' search for his lost love, Emmeline. A story written with the tears and hopes of the ancesters of the modern day Cajuns.
