Despondency The bitterly cold air is blasting into my face and the rain is clattering down onto my skin like thousands of bullets being shot at once. As Arthur and I dash through Deauville Avenue, goose bumps start racing on my limbs. My plump lips are turning blue like an afternoon sky. Inelegantly, I fall through the doors of a petite boutique determined to find something to keep me snug and warm. I catch a glimpse of a sleek, smooth, silky scarf. Flabbergasted, I stand in awe…Wow!…

Three aspects of the setting that impact this story, “How Santa Claus Came to Simpson’s Bar,” are the weather conditions, the characters’ ways of life and the season. The weather conditions in the story were rainy, so much that the streams were overflowing. This impacted the story because it made it even harder for Dick to get out.

Think about it: We almost always have clouds hanging around in the sky, smog is being pumped into the air fir most of the day, and the sun is trying so hard to get through all the mess. It’s not, pretty I’ll tell you that much. An orange-grey sky with a dull orangish-red glow isn’t as beautiful as you would think. It’s yucky…

It's a day, this one, in which the rain seems not to find peace, and it collects inside the hands' baskets of beggars and spreads over the din of roundabouts, when the road is a long canvas punctured by irregular splinters of sky, disturbed by gargling traffic and tires and nervous girls with wet skirts on the sidewalks. I observe the rain while the street narrows at the…
