__**Setting of "The Second Hut"**__
"The Second Hut" by Dorris Lessing is setted in Southern Rhodesia, in South Africa. The story takes place in the early 20th century. The temperature there is not as hot than for example in middle africa but nevertheless very hot and the air is very dry. Major Carruthers,one of the main characters, living on a farm which seems to be very poor. There are also some huts for the natives and for Van Heerden, another mein character, and his family, but they are also very small. The poorness in which they get into more and more is an important fact in the story and the story is really setted in a poor farm.
