The entirety of the novel unfolds in the village of Lapvona over the course of a year and a few months. Lapvona is a small trade village that finds itself in a period of regression after a horrible plague deprived it of its wealth, popularity, and reputation as a particularly fallow location. The townspeople live a parochial and impoverished existence, while the lord resides in a large manor at the top of a hill. The town is deeply religious, to an extreme and puritanical degree, and their culture is an insular one where each individual is under heavy scrutiny.
