No, the 1940's beginning would be a reason why today's readers would be attracted to the book. Back in 1950 the Second World War was only a few years in the past. People would look at the time as more like recent history, although there was a fond remembrance for medieval fairy tales, which would evoke a similar feeling of nostalgia toward the Narnia portion of the book. Actually, both generations of readers could enjoy the story's nostalgia. There is no reason why the readers from different times couldn’t love all of the time periods in the books, although the World War II period was darker and perhaps more difficult to survive.
