Setting
There
is only one setting throughout this short story; however
we believe that you should all become very familiar
with it. This story takes place in small town, rural
Quebec, in the 1940’s. In towns like these, there
was virtually no English spoken. French was the one
and only language. Farming was almost the only profession.
What is really important about small town Quebec is
that only three things mattered to the inhabitants
of this small town: education, religion, and hockey.
When the population was not working, in school, or
in church, they were playing hockey. Hockey was a
way of life for these people.
