Description:
A beautifully told story about a disillusioned woman searching for love and belonging from the winner of the 2024 VPLA Unpublished Manuscript Award. Perfect for fans of Deborah Levy and Rachel Cusk, The Sun Was Electric Light explores what it means to live a good life.



'I read this pure, pained, beautiful book in a single burst, and emerged from it with heart and nerves rinsed clean.' Helen Garner




Disillusioned with her life in New York, Ruth returns to a lake town in Guatemala where she had been happy a decade earlier. There, in Panajachel, she meets two very different women- the calm and practical Emilie, and the turbulent and intoxicating Carmen.




Deciding to stay and build a life at the lake, Ruth finds work first as a nanny to a wealthy local family, then as an English teacher at a village school. Meanwhile, she becomes increasingly infatuated by her friendship with Carmen, pushing away the stability of her connection with Emilie. As Carmen's fragile relationship with the world splinters, the difference between being a visitor and truly belonging becomes clear, and Ruth is forced to act.



The Sun Was Electric Light is a sublime novel about searching for belonging and a life that makes sense.

Lightweight, Great Quality, Fit Might not be Perfect.
Size: Medium, Color: Blue Plaid, Size: Medium, Color: Blue Plaid
Cute, comfortable and breathes like a spring breeze! The only complaint here is the fit. Several folks mentioned it not being a loose fit, we had the opposite problem, fit the chest and shoulders perfectly, but a bit baggy in the mid section. Tucked in, it kind of muffin tops out a bit, but loose it is lovely how much this thing breathes. Overall I think we are going to try a size down, but will update once we have a better handle on that. Quality wise, this shirt is great, strong, lightweight material that I can see lasting as long any other brand.

The stretchy feminine fit, very comfortable and great value
Size: Small, Color: Lavender Rose
I review promotional products and only give my honest opinion, others may have a different opinion. LOVE this golf shirt! The material is a really nice quality, so soft and a stretchy fabric. The print and color is really nice too! The lavender/lilac is so pretty. Rarely can I find this color in this type of top. I love that it’s sleeveless with the high collar. And it’s not a cropped fit, it sit at my lower waist. I’m 5’3” 120-125lbs’ish and 34DD and the size small fit me PERFECT! Very flattering fit. Comes in at waist and flares a bit at the bottom seam. This golf shirt by M MAELREG is versatile through the three seasons. A lightweight yet thicker material. Sweat absorbing. Def give this golf shirt a “YAY!”

Golf-Shirt or not; My daughter's most Favorite
Size: Medium, Color: Black Gray Blocks
Whether this is a Golf-Shirt or not, it's my daughter's most Favorite dress now after I gave her, last week. She now wears it at her office, at parties, and even at home when playing with her son. So, in that sense, you don't have to buy costly golf equipment and get another costly membership - just dress up with it and go anywhere and get admired. Its low neck design with a short zipper in front and sleeveless sides makes it most modern-looking. This shirt is nice and very lightweight, having a base material of polyester added with spandex. This also makes it moisture-wicking and breathable. The fabric has a coolness to it that would make an appropriate dress for the coming summer.

I like these fleece-lined pants
Color: Black, Size: 32W x 32L
For these specific pants, the 32" inseam is accurate and fits as expected. The fleece lining was great in high 40's and did not feel too warm when the temp climbed into the 60's. I was impressed enough to buy a second pair. They appear to be well made and look great.

Perfect. Warmth without bulk
Color: Grey, Size: 34W x 30L
Perfect thickness and insulation level. Warmth without bulk. Stylish and do a good job disguising what they are. Cut is similar to "regular" or "straight" cut jeans. Will be ordering other colors...
