example, the area the story takes place in seems vastly different compared to The Scarlet Letter’s setting. Introducing the setting to “The Burning”, Trambley sets the scene with details of Lela’s origin:“She had come across the mountain to their pueblo many years before. She had crossed la Barranca del Cobre alone”(Trambley 299). Taking place in la Barranca del Cobre, an area in Northern Mexico, the setting is vastly different from an American Puritan society.

This would cause great difficulty to living a comfortable life as it was difficult to obtain food, clothes and shelter which are vital necessities for living.
