Though things get a little more exciting near the end, the story remains extremely small-scale all the way through, remains focused on one (large) family, and never moves out of the village. Lifelode is the story of what happens after two strangers come to the tiny village of Applekirk and of course, throw their usually stagnant life into all sorts of upheaval. Unfortunately, it was completely impossible to get – available either from a small press that did not ship to my country, or used for insane prices – until very recently when an ebook finally became available. It seemed like exactly that sort of small-scale book I might be into. I have wanted to read this book since at least 2015.
