Prompt #5 Chapter 8


Towards the end of this chapter Bryson talks a little about Anne Franks House in Holland. He tells about how hard it must have been for eight people to live in an attic for three years in Nazi-occupied territory. But interestingly enough, he pays his respects to the wife of the husband who owned the house who managed to feed ten people for three years during the most heavily rationed time in Holland’s recent history. It is an accomplishment that I never considered before. It must have been so dangerous to have lived during WWII especially for Europeans.
