The Sun Was Electric Light

About this book

A haunting exploration of identity, loss, and the search for belonging in the vibrant landscape of Guatemala.
Disillusioned with her life in New York, Ruth seeks solace in a Guatemalan lake town, hoping to recapture a past happiness. There, she forges intense friendships with Emilie and Carmen, two women who challenge her understanding of connection and belonging. As Ruth navigates the complexities of expat life and grapples with her growing infatuation with the enigmatic Carmen, she must confront the true meaning of home and the price of staying adrift.
When tragedy strikes, Ruth is forced to confront the chasm between being a visitor and truly belonging. Will she find the strength to forge her own path, or will the allure of the past keep her tethered to a life unlived? Perfect for readers of literary fiction seeking a poignant and atmospheric exploration of self-discovery, The Sun Was Electric Light delves into the depths of human connection and the search for meaning in a world of constant change.
