Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

"Where Is Here?" takes place:

b. on a chilly, damp evening at sunset

"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:
