Question B

[Tracey]

How do the various physical settings of the novel — for instance, Nick’s converted railway carriage, his parents’ strangely decorated mansion, and Stig Svenson’s gallery — contribute to the mood of the scenes that occur in those places?

[Kris (My Novelesque Life)]

I enjoyed the description of different places as it gave the reader an image of what the place is and how it relates to the characters.

I think the parents’ strangely decorated mansion showed their eccentricity!
