Post 7: post about the setting in either Hemingway's or Packer's story.

The setting for Ernest Hemingway's short story "Soldier's Home" is a town of medium size in Oklahoma. The time is the summer of 1919. Much of the story takes place in the home of the young protagonist named Harold Krebs, who has only recently returned from France and Germany, where he was fighting in important battles in World War I. His mother is a housewife. His father is in the real estate business and deals mostly in farm property. Krebs spends much of his time in the house.
