Detailed Answer : The war left Nicola and Jacopo homeless. War affects not only soldiers but also civilians. Those two boys were also affected by the war. They lost not only their house but also their widower father, a well known singer. For months, they had barely kept themselves alive in a sort of shelter they had built with their own hands amidst the rubble. Their sister became the victim of tuberculosis. War may destroy home but not one's heart. War, with its attendant horrors, had only broken their home but not their spirit. Their selfless action gave promise of a greater hope for human society. |
