Description

Ray Robinson’s visceral, ambitious debut novel Electricity is a tour de force portrayal of a heroine you will not soon forget.

Thirty-year-old Lily O’Connor lives with epilepsy, uncontrollable surges of electricity that leave her in a constant state of edginess.

Prickly, up-front-honest and down-to-earth practical, Lily has learned to make do, to make the most of things, to look after — and out for — herself.

Then her mother — whom Lily has not seen for years — dies, and Lily is drawn back into a world she thought she’d long since left behind.

Reunited with her brother, a charismatic poker player, Lily pursues her own high-stakes gamble, leaving for London to track down her other, missing brother Mikey.

In the pandemonium of the city, Lily’s seizures only intensify.

As her journey takes her from her comfort zone, it leads her into the question of what her life is meant to be.
