Description

A debut novel set in Alaska, Homestead is a beautiful and immersive portrait of a new state and the hard-fought work of making a family. Against the backdrop of the rapidly changing Territory, Marie and Lawrence build their life together on 150 acres of land, but as they face everything they don't know about each other, can they create something new or will they break apart? As they navigate the challenges of homesteading, Marie and Lawrence must confront their own desires, fears, and dreams. With its spare yet exquisite prose, this novel builds on itself, becoming expansive and staggering in its sweep. A powerful exploration of love, family, and belonging, Homestead is a joyfully alive and unflinching portrayal of life in the wild. With its unique blend of intimacy and elemental power, this novel will appeal to readers who enjoy literary fiction and historical stories set against the backdrop of Alaska's early years as a territory.
