Setting

The setting is a place or event that occurs. EX: The setting of the Lord of The Flies is on in island.

Example: the setting of The Lord of The Flies is on an island and an event that occurs is their first assembly.

A quote from the book:

"Here the beach was interrupted abruptly by the square motif of the landscape; a great platform of pink granite thrust up uncompromisingly through forest and terrace and sand and lagoon to make a raised jetty four feet high. The top of this was covered with a thin layer of soil and coarse grass and shaded with young palm trees."

-Lord of The Flies, pg. 13
