Answer:

The setting of a book is the time and geographic location within a narrative. It is a literary element. The setting initiates the main backdrop and mood for a story. So, you don't need a plot summary - all you need to know is where the book takes place and when, and describe it. Emphasise it. Go around it, and elaborate.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps. Let me know if you require further assistance.
