Explanation:

In literature, the mood is the prevailing emotion or feeling that a literary work evoke, which at the same time, creates the atmosphere of the work. Mood is mainly determined by word choice. For example, take a look at the following excerpt from The Road by Corman McCarthy and notice how the choice of words creates the mood:

The blackness he woke to on those nights was sightless and impenetrable. A blackness to hurt your ears with listening. Often he had to get up.No sound but the wind in the bare and blackened trees. He rose and stood tottering on that cold autistic dark with his arms outheld for balance while the vestibular calculations in his skull cranked out their reckonings.

Here, words like “sightless and impenetrable,” “blackness,” “blackened trees” and “on that cold autistic dark” creates a gloomy and somber atmosphere in the narrative and, consequently, it evokes that same feeling within the reader: the mood of the excerpt is gloomy.
