Again, the fact that Coriolanus has spent his entire life hungry shows that the war affected everyone, not just the working classes in Panem. Rather, it turned everyone into either a monster (as it did Nero Price) or a hero (as with Grandma’am, bartering for the lima beans). But the trick, Coriolanus suggests, is to look like the war didn’t affect him. He can’t allow his scars to show, and he should never act like he has less than he needs.
