Settings of a story

1st story
The Real Durwan by Jhumpa Lahiri

Calcutta, India.

Around the 1950s.

The setting tells me that the story is going to be sad, unhappy.
2nd story
The Adventure of the Speckled Band by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Baker street, London, Britain.
19th Century.
In the story, the person has around seventy cases which has studied about Sherlock Holmes, he has only recently made progress, discovery but however was not able to link the cases together. Sherlock Holmes lives in Central London and is a rich and reputable. since its Sherlock Holmes I get the impression that this story will be about mysteries and new discoveries.
3rd story
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Town in England

18th Century

This story is going to be something about a man who is rich and is in need of a wife, however he faces some problems when trying to get her.

In to kill a mockingbird, the first chapter is basically the background information of Jean Louise Finch and both family and friends, the start of her friendship with Dill. It is merely a general chapter of her background.
