A short story I have recently read and enjoyed is “Uneasy Homecoming” by Will. F. Jenkins. This is a very enjoyable read, as the title suggests is about a young woman called Connie who is a little paranoid coming home to an empty home which sits alone on the other side of the bay. Her husband isn’t due back until 12 o’clock midnight as he o on a business trip. The importance of setting in this story is a key point. Connie’s (the main character) house sits all by itself, the first house to be built on the other side of the bay. No neighbours. The author clearly shows how isolated the house is. An example of this is “ So far, their house was the only one that had been built on the other side of the bay.” The author also shoes the weather and time of day “The garden looked only a little neglected.
