Answer: For one, She uses the name Starkfield to express that the town is very bleak, desolate and empty

Explanation:

Edith Wharton uses the name of the place as a tool to state the not only the kind of place and atmosphere but also the kind of events that happen around the characters, the word stark give us the definition of something that is not flexible at all and can not change, this helps the reader to have a more complete mental image during the plot.
