Dans ce récit du quotidien, elle décline du plus intime au plus large le thème de l'appartenance et de la déchirure, du partage affectif et moral auquel elle se trouve confrontée par sa position (étrangère ayant adopté la France), dans un pays par ailleurs coupé en deux, face au jeu des divisions et des alliances subies ou assumées, tantôt avec une force et une conviction absolues, tantôt dans le doute et le découragement.
Mais cette chronique où tout fait événement - de la quête de nourriture à l'annonce de l'armistice - ne suffirait pas à faire de cet ouvrage un texte d'exception si l'intelligence et les dons d'observation de l'auteure n'éclairaient avec tant de perspicacité les motivations de chacun. L'écriture, fine et élégante, sait restituer l'émotion des moments les plus forts tout en laissant s'exprimer l'humour, l'insolence et le rire d'une jeune femme profondément éprise de la vie.
Une autre qualité de ce livre est d'apporter un témoignage rare sur la communauté de réfugiés (russes, belges, anglais) mais aussi d'intellectuels (Germaine Dieterlen et les Lévi-Strauss sont ses proches voisins et amis) présents à Valleraugue durant cette période noire. Tout ce monde compose un milieu cosmopolite qui, loin de se tenir à l'écart, se mêle à la population locale dont il dépend aussi.
Paru en Angleterre en 1962, l'ouvrage, plusieurs fois réimprimé, a contribué à faire découvrir les Cévennes à nombre de Britanniques et plus tard d'Américains. Il est traduit pour la première fois en français.

About the Author
Janet Teissier du Cros (1905-1990) a grandi dans une famille d'universitaires à Aberdeen puis Édimbourg. Pianiste talentueuse, élève de Donald Tovey, ses études musicales la conduisent dans les années 1920 à Vienne où elle fréquente le salon de Clara Wittgenstein. Après son mariage avec François Teissier du Cros en 1930, le couple se partage entre la France et la Grande-Bretagne. Mais c'est en France que, séparée de son mari mobilisé puis fait prisonnier, elle va passer les années de guerre, pour la plus grande part dans les Cévennes, région d'origine de son époux. De ses souvenirs elle a tiré un livre singulier, Divided Loyalties, publié en 1962 en Grande-Bretagne et traduit en français en 2017. Janet Teissier du Cros repose à Mandiargues, dans le Gard.

9. liability
For claims based on damage caused by us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents, we shall always be liable without limitation - in the event of injury to life, limb or health - in the event of intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty - in the event of warranty promises, insofar as agreed, or - insofar as the scope of application of the Product Liability Act is opened. In the event of a breach of essential contractual obligations, the fulfillment of which is a prerequisite for the proper execution of the contract and the observance of which the contractual partner may regularly rely on (cardinal obligations) due to slight negligence on our part, on the part of our legal representatives or vicarious agents, liability shall be limited to the amount of the damage foreseeable at the time of the conclusion of the contract, the occurrence of which must typically be expected. Otherwise, claims for damages are excluded.
10. dispute resolution
The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR), which can be found here: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. Consumers have the possibility to use this platform for the settlement of their disputes.
To settle disputes arising from a contractual relationship with a consumer or whether such a contractual relationship exists at all, we are obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. The responsible body is the Universalschlichtungsstelle des Bundes am Zentrum für Schlichtung e.V., Straßburger Straße 8, 77694 Kehl am Rhein, www.verbraucher-schlichter.de. We will participate in a dispute resolution procedure before this body.
11. protection of minors
If your order includes goods whose sale is subject to age restrictions, we ensure that the customer has reached the required minimum age by using a reliable procedure involving a personal identity and age check. The delivery person will hand over the goods only after the age check has been carried out and only to the customer in person.
Delivery to packing stations is not possible in this case.
