In literary and spoken narrative, the mood, or atmosphere, is the emotion or feeling the language evokes in the audience. Mood is created by means of setting, attitude of the narrator or characters, and descriptions. Although atmosphere and setting are connected, they may be considered separately to a degree. Atmosphere is the aura of mood that surrounds the story. It is to fiction what the sensory level is to poetry or mise-en-scene is to cinema. Mood is established to affect the reader emotionally and psychologically and to provide a feeling for the narrative.
