Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

"Where Is Here?" takes place:

b. on a chilly, damp evening at sunset

Explanation:

"Where Is Here" is short story by author Joyce Carol Oates. The answer to this question concerning the setting can be found at the beginning of the story, in the first two paragraphs. Take a look at the evidence below:

<em>[...]  when, one November  evening at dusk, the doorbell rang</em>

<em>So, in the chill, damp, deepening dusk, the stranger wandered around the property</em>

Thus, we can safely say the story takes place b. on a chilly, damp evening at sunset.

Joyce Carol Oates in an awarded American writer born in 1938.
