The Year the Lights Came on by Terry Kay
First published in 1976, The Year the Lights Came On was Terry Kay's debut novel. Revolving around the electrification of rural northeast Georgia shortly after the end of World War I, the novel has become a classic coming-of-age story. Kay, now an acclaimed writer with an international following, has reread the novel with the eyes of a seasoned storyteller. Cutting here and adding there, Kay has enriched an already highly comical and poignant work. The Year the Lights Came On is ready to find its place in the hearts of a new generation.Bringing Lottie Home, The Runaway, Shadow Song, and the now-classic To Dance with the White Dog, which was twice nominated for the American Booksellers Book of the Year Award and won the Southeastern Library Association Book of the Year Award, are among Terry Kay's works. Terry Kay has four children and seven grandchildren after 44 years of marriage. Georgi, he lives in Athens.
