The Year the Lights Came on

The Year the Lights Came On hit my desk one day, went home with me that afternoon and kept me up, sans supper, sans television, sans twilight walk in the yard, until I had finished every last word of it. It is a lovely, moving, suspenseful story with that rare quality which so few writers achieve, the thing that makes you say, 'That's the way it was. I remember'

This is a story of youth, its joys and adventures, its pains and battles, its loves and friendships. Kay has come up with a deliciously nostalgic look at the whole experience of Growing Up.
