Answer 1

Margo Minco is a Jewish girl who faced the pain, sufferings, and losses, including the irreparable loss of her dear mother in war. She is a brave and courageous girl who faces the challenges of a lonely life after the war is over. She is attached to her mother’s things and after returning to her home-city, she goes to Mrs. Dorling to claim her mother’s things back. Mrs. Dorling’s cold, indifferent and discouraging behavior further depresses her. She had already suffered many losses, including the irreparable loss of her dear mother. Finally she decides to leave her mother’s things and forget them forever as the things will evoke her mother’s memories more often and make her more miserable.
