The setting for Peace like a River are in many places from his hometown. The high school and his house are just a few of the settings. The settings I think are mostly irony or tragedy. Reading about these settings help me place which mode to put that chapter in.
One of the main settings is in Reuben's house where he was born, and where the plot starts. Also, while he is there, he hears the story about Dolly, Israel, and Tommy. The high school is important because that's where the incident with Dolly happened and all the danger started. There was another place as well, the Methodist church, whose religion required certain practices. Reuben's dad ended up on the floor, unconscious. All these chapters' modes were tragic or irony.
