« Le déterminisme économique est un nouvel outil, mis par Marx à la disposition des socialistes pour établir un peu d'ordre dans le désordre des faits historiques que les historiens et les philosophes ont été incapables de classer et d'expliquer. » Paul Lafargue

Dans un style alerte et imagé, Georges Douart nous décrit l'existence poignante des "Civils sous l'Occupation". Il rappelle ces évènements qui assaillent les Français : les diktats de la Kommandantur, la propagande hitlérienne, les otages fusillés, les réquisitions écrasantes, le rationnement rigoureux, l'obsession de la nourriture, le ravitaillement en campagne, l'amaigrissement de tous ! Il décrit l'insécurité quotidienne des civils, qui souffrent des soirées d'hiver sans feu, sans électricité, sans pain, bloqués par le couvre-feu, sans parler des terribles bombardements alliés, de l'exode des évacués, de la vie des survivants dans Nantes en ruine. Remercions Georges Douart de son témoignage émouvant, que nous vivons passionnément avec lui. C'est qu'il est écrit avec le coeur, aussi bien qu'avec la raison !

Fils et petit-fils d'ouvriers nantais, lui-même ouvrier électricien, Georges Douart raconte ici, très simplement, ce qui lui est arrivé. Une enfance de guerre et de misère (un père déporté en Allemagne, un frère tué dans un bombardement), la faim et la solitude, les mauvais coups d'un gang de J 3... tout cela, Georges le rejette derrière lui. Il s'en ira travailler avec d'autres jeunes sur les « Chantiers internationaux ». Pendant trois ans, il va bourlinguer à travers toute l'Europe, de la Laponie à la Mer Noire, de l'Écosse à l'Italie. Puis, il partira pour l'Asie : deux ans aux Indes et au Pakistan comme coolie et maçon, un an au Japon comme bûcheron et terrassier ; enfin, un an en Amérique, où il voyagera et sera manoeuvre et charpentier. De ce tour du monde insolite, qui a été aussi pour lui le passage de l'adolescence à l'âge d'homme, Georges Douart a rapporté ce témoignage, remarquable par la fraîcheur des sentiments, la pénétration du jugement, le nombre et la diversité des aventures tragiques ou comiques qu'il a vécues. En partageant l'existence quotidienne de tous les gens qu'il a côtoyés, il a découvert, avec ses yeux neufs de jeune ouvrier, un monde qui est vraiment le nôtre, un monde inconnu des touristes et des hommes d'affaires, un monde fraternel et passionnant.

Bien des gens pensent connaître la classe ouvrière française, mais n'y a-t-il pas deux manières de la voir, suivant qu'on en fait partie, ou qu'on la juge de l'extérieur ? Georges Douart a travaillé comme ouvrier spécialisé, ou professionnel, dans de petites et grandes entreprises ; il a discuté avec des milliers d'ouvriers, questionné des centaines de syndicalistes, contacté des dizaines de « permanents ». C'est aux travailleurs, militants ou inorganisés, que "L'usine et l'homme" donne la parole. Ils expliquent à Georges Douart les difficultés de leur métier, leurs relations avec les chefs et les patrons, et comment ils voient le monde moderne.

Trapped in a cruel web of deceit and obsession, the two girls fight to hold onto their dreams, but can they ever be happy in a world that does not recognise their right to love? Find out all in this enthralling and unusual romance by BARBARA CARTLAND.Barbara Cartland was the world's most prolific novelist who wrote an amazing 723 books in her lifetime, of which no less than 644 were romantic novels with worldwide sales of over 1 billion copies and her books were translated into 36 different languages. As well as romantic novels, she wrote historical biographies, 6 autobiographies, theatrical plays and books of advice on life, love, vitamins and cookery. She wrote her first book at the age of 21 and it was called Jigsaw. It became an immediate bestseller and sold 100,000 copies in hardback in England and all over Europe in translation. Between the ages of 77 and 97 she increased her output and wrote an incredible 400 romances as the demand for her romances was so strong all over the world. She wrote her last book at the age of 97 and it was entitled perhaps prophetically The Way to Heaven. Her books have always been immensely popular in the United States where in 1976 her current books were at numbers 1 & 2 in the B. Dalton bestsellers list, a feat never achieved before or since by any author. Barbara Cartland became a legend in her own lifetime and will be best remembered for her wonderful romantic novels so loved by her millions of readers throughout the world, who have always collected her books to read again and again, especially when they feel miserable or depressed. Her books will always be treasured for their moral message, her pure and innocent heroines, her handsome and dashing heroes, her blissful happy endings and above all for her belief that the power of love is more important than anything else in everyone's life.
