Sometimes it feels like Gen Z were dealt a somewhat bad hand while growing up. Although 2010 – 2016 was a relatively peaceful and flourishing era, there is general sentiment that the post 2017 years have been chaotic. Coronavirus, more wars ), rising housing costs, AI shock, more difficult to get employed, etc. I want to help put these seemingly chaotic years into perspective because my intuition tells me that there have been other equally chaotic years throughout history. Are there any novels/books that explore life in particularly difficult times in history where people had to grow up?
