we just watched the film of this book. Enjoyed it too. Makes a change to see a film
involving an orphanage where the children are actually loved by the staff and are
treated
well. It was somewhat disturbing that the behaviour of the father who was having sex
with
his daughter was ignored by the others. It took the young Homer to put him straight.
Still, that is how the abuse of children happens. People turn a blind eye. The time
period
of the film was no different to today in that respect.
