Setting in To Kill a Mockingbird:

Lee provides readers details of the social and political atmosphere of life in the South during the Depression Era. In a story, the setting is not always just time and place. it includes the atmosphere, both social and political. 

Setting can include:

• the way things are done (norms)
• how people treat one another
• religion
• class structure
• social structure
• economics
