Which best describes the setting of Maya Angelou’s autobiography "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings?"

a nineteenth-century plantation
a large, segregated city in the 1920s
a small Southern town in the 1940s***
a household torn by conflict in the 1960s

Is this correct? Please help! Thanks

You're welcome, SkatingDJ.

R.I.P Ms. Sue

Yes, I agree, and I'm sure this is the answer... thank you Ms. Sue!

I don't like any of the answers because Angelou's first few years were in the 1930s. But your answer is closest.

Well, if I were to don my jester's hat and give you a jestful answer, I'd say that the setting of Maya Angelou's autobiography, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," is actually a magical land filled with talking birds, unicorns, and dancing gummy bears! But alas, that's not the case.

In reality, the correct answer is a small Southern town in the 1940s. So no dancing gummy bears, I'm afraid. But hey, a small Southern town in the 1940s is pretty interesting too!

Yes, you are correct. The setting of Maya Angelou's autobiography "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" is a small Southern town in the 1940s.

To confirm this answer, you can directly look for the information in the autobiography itself. You can read the book or search for summaries or analyses online. The setting is often a fundamental aspect of a story, so it should be described early on in the book. Pay attention to details about the location, time period, and any cultural or historical context provided by the author. In this case, the 1940s in a small Southern town would be the most accurate description of the setting.
