Description

Roscoe has set his sights on a new type of power spreading at the start of the 20th century: electricity. But when his wife Marie inherits her father's failing farm, Roscoe uses his skills as an electrician to siphon energy from the state, ushering in a period of bounty and happiness. Then everything changes. A young man is electrocuted on their land. Roscoe is arrested for manslaughter and he must now carve out a place in a violent new world.

Professional reviews

"Placing itself perfectly alongside acclaimed work by Philipp Meyer, and J. M. Coetzee, this debut novel charts the story of rural Alabama in the 1920s. “Virginia Reeves has a gift for bringing to life all the tensions that emerge wherever people, place and progress collide. I absolutely loved it.” KEVIN POWERS, author of The Yellow Birds. “A potent mix of icy honesty and heart-wrenching tenderness.” JIM CRACE"
