To provide an accurate response regarding the mood implied by the story's setting in "BIG WATER" by Andrea Curtis, I would need a specific excerpt from the text. However, I can help analyze the mood based on general themes and settings typical of a story involving water, nature, and possibly conflict or crisis.
If the setting involves dramatic elements such as storms, rising water levels, or isolation, it may create a tense or foreboding mood. Conversely, if the setting depicts calm waters, serene landscapes, and tranquility, the mood could be more peaceful and reflective.
Please provide an excerpt or more details about the setting, and I’d be happy to help analyze the mood!
