When any of the former residents of Tydeham discuss their relocation, they don’t seem bitter, more often saying something to the effect that it was wartime and they were lucky (e.g., Mr. Houghton on p. 157: “[T]he war made things hard for a lot of people. At least we always had a roof over our heads.”) Why do you think this is? How do you think most would react to similar deprivations today?
