Relizane, pendant la guerre d’Algérie. Lorsqu’en pleine nuit, on frappe à la porte, Marcel, le grand-père d’Olivia Elkaim, craint pour sa vie et celles de sa femme et de leurs deux enfants. On lui enfile une cagoule sur la tête, il est jeté dans un camion et emmené dans le désert. Va-t-il être condamné à mort ou gracié ? Il revient sain et sauf à Relizane trois jours plus tard, et ses proches se demandent quel est le secret de ce sauf-conduit. A quoi a-t-il collaboré ? Quels gages a-t-il donné et à qui ? Viviane, son épouse, ses frères, sa mère, ses voisins, tous questionnent le tailleur juif. Mais il garde le silence. Quand un jeune apprenti arabe se présente devant son échoppe, Marcel comprend que tôt ou tard, il lui faudra quitter son pays natal.

Après ce début d’une folle intensité romanesque, Olivia Elkaim retrace l’histoire de sa famille, l’exil des siens, leur arrachement à cette terre africaine, et leur fuite chaotique vers une France où rien ne les attend - ni confort, ni sympathie, ni même aucune aide administrative.

Ces valeureux que le soleil caressait il y a peu, deviennent des réprouvés qui ne connaîtront que l’ombre d’une cave humide à Angers. Les grands-parents d’Olivia Elkaim, Viviane et Marcel, sont deux magnifiques personnages, entre Albert Cohen et Anna Magnani, qui ne cesseront de rêver d’échapper à cette triste France.

Au-delà de tout ce que nous savons du retour d’une famille pied-noire en métropole, au-delà du drame humain, familial, politique, souvent commenté par les historiens, Olivia Elkaim explore sa part algérienne, juive, lyrique, à la fois enchantée et hantée, que son père Pierre avait tenté en vain de lui transmettre.
Par ce livre qui rend hommage à ses ancêtres, et à travers la photographie jaunie d’une grand-tante, retrouvée par hasard dans le cimetière juif de Relizane, elle se révèle aussi à elle-même.

Compact & soft cap
Color: Dark Navy, Size: One Size
Great fall/winter hat if you’re looking for something that’s not too bulky. I wanted for a winter hat that I could just keep in my inside pocket of my winter jacket - problem was the pocket was not very big. I had another knit cap that just did not fit in there. The Danish Endurance beanie fits the bill! Being so thin, it is not my warmest beanie – but gets the job done! It also feels so soft. I bought another in a different color! The hat arrived with a few creases in it. You could steam it, but don’t really notice any wrinkles when you put it on. I wish they made it in a darker gray/charcoal.

Soft but flimsy
Color: Dark Navy, Size: One Size
Its soft and warmth is ok, but it feels very thin and a bit flimsy. The knit at the top looks particulary fragile. I think for the price this is still ok value but I do not expected it to last a long time.

Cashmere but far too thin
Color: Dark Navy, Size: One Size, Color: Dark Navy, Size: One Size
The beanie feels soft and genuinely made of cashmere, but the fabric is surprisingly thin — almost transparent when held to the light. It lacks the warmth and structure you’d normally expect from a cashmere item. The design and packaging are pleasant, but the overall impression is disappointing. It’s comfortable to touch yet too delicate to provide real protection against the cold.

Cool hat.
Color: Dark Navy, Size: One Size
This is a nice little hat. Even though it’s really thin, it does seem to keep my head warm. Really haven’t tried it out in the wind yet. But saying that you could put another hat on top of it.
