TKAM Setting Comparison




     In the photo "Houses in the Negro section of Eutaw, Alabama" I had many observations and about how it related to the setting in "To Kill a Mockingbird". In Maycomb the town is described as "a small tired old town" and in this phote it seems that it is a town but very small and rundown because of how the houses were contructed. In the book the setting was also described with "grass on the sidewalk and dirt road" and in the photo it shows the grass growing everywhere and it seems like an old small area, or a town. 

     In the same photo I had many thoughts about it, and how it related to the setting in the book. I thought that this picture may have been taken during the Great Depressin because of the poor living conditions. In the book it is during the Great Depression and many of the kids in the book didn't have a great place to live in baased on thier appearance on the first day of school. Many houses were closed together, and in this picture that is how it is.
