Chapter 2 English" the address

 Question 2: 

The story is divided into pre-war and post-war times. What hardships do you think the narrator faced during these times?

Answer: 

During the pre-war times, the narrator lived a normal life with her family. However, as the war approached, her family faced increasing difficulties, including the confiscation of their belongings, displacement, and possibly the loss of family members. Post-war, the narrator likely faced the challenges of rebuilding her life, dealing with the trauma of loss, and coming to terms with the fact that her previous life was irrevocably changed. The difficulty of reclaiming her past, as symbolized by her failed attempt to retrieve her mother's belongings, highlights the deep emotional and psychological scars left by the war.
