Setting

The significance of the use of setting is very powerful. Readers normally skim through the setting of the story. After we know where the when the story takes place, usually at the beginning of the book, we normally pay little attention to the additional information of setting that come after. However keeping setting in mind while reading is a plus. Setting creates the story to come into life. The more details the reader gets aquainted with, the more focused and interested the reader becomes. In addition, setting provides meaning in greater depth. According to Godwin, "A Sorrowful Woman occurs in the spring, an ironic time for the action to be set because instead of rebirth for the protagonist there is only death." Setting definitely causes the reader to think deeper.
