Question

When does "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall" take place?

Answer 1

"The Jilting of Granny Weatherall" takes place at the deathbed of 'Granny' when she drifts in and out of consciousness as she prepares to die. She is thinking back on her younger life and its effect on her as she grew old.

Answer 2

"The Jilting of Granny Weatherall" take place in a room more precisely in the deathbed of Granny, during the course of one day. However, there are not many clues to figure out the time period during which the story takes place. But there are certain hints, for instance, Granny suggests that the story took place past the period of using kerosene lamps so it's probably to affirm that it was set at least in early twentieth-century territory.
