Contents • • • • • • The Address Summary • The Return After the war had ended the narrator felt confident and safe enough to visit her old place. She found her old house was not there and started living in a small hut.

Reminiscing the old times she decided to visit the address: House Number 46, Marconi Street. This is the address of her mother’s old acquaintance Mrs Dorling whom the narrator had only seen once and that was before the War. She used to borrow her mother’s belongings and possessions like clothes, utensils, silverware etc for safe keeping in case their family had to flee their house protecting themselves against the Nazi repression. When the narrator, Marga Minco, reaches the address a broad-backed old lady opens the door incompletely as if to hide some secret. She is wearing her mother’s old cardigan. The girl recognizes the woman and acknowledges the same.

The woman claims to know nothing about her. The girl reminded her of Mrs S, her mother and their house.

The woman realized who she was and enquired how did survive when the rest of her family died in the war and repression. The girl said she had returned to the place after the war and wanted to see her mother’s things. The woman rebuffed her advances and said that she did not have time to get into old stuff at that moment and that the girl should return some other time. The woman’s daughter asked about the visitor from inside the house but the woman claimed that it was nobody familiar. The betrayal of her mother’s old friend shocked and hurt the narrator. She decided to return with a heavy heart and dashed hopes.

• The Memory On her way back the narrator remembers the day she came back to her mother’s at the beginning of the war. She may have returned from a hostel or a trip.

She looked at the house and the rooms and found several pieces of furniture, crockery, silverware etc were not there. She became worried and enquired about the missing stuff from her mother. Her mother downplayed the issue and instead appreciated her keen observation. One morning when the girl was striding down the stairs she saw a woman leaving her house and her mother escorting her out. This woman was carrying their crockery and furniture and loading them in a carriage. She tells her mother about the woman and why she took their stuff.

Her mother told her that it was Mrs Dorling an old friend of hers who had reconnected with her in recent times. She was taking their things to keep them safe in case they had to flee in an emergency. They would collect their things after peace was established and they were safe in their place.
