Sense of Place and Setting in Fiction
Ever finish reading a story and find the setting indelibly marked on your imagination? Think: Hemingway, Cather, O'Connor, and Joyce. Not only do you visualize the landscape, hear the sounds, and smell the atmosphere, but you are also left with the emotional impact that the sense of place renders on the characters. You feel as though you've traveled. Whether your story is set in a bungalow or a high-rise, on the sea or the prairie, or perhaps takes place in alternate universe, learn how to craft place to add strength and dimension to your work. Practice how to show the heart of environment without falling prey to overwrought sentiments and empty description.
