The Electrical Venus

Can this shocking new feeling be love, or is it electrickery?In a lowly side-show fair in eighteenth-century England, teenager Mim is struggling to find her worth as an act. Not white, but not black enough to be truly exotic, her pet parrot who speaks four languages is a bigger draw than her. But Alex, the one-armed boxer boy, sees her differently. And she, too, feels newly interested in him.But then Dr Fox arrives with his scientific kit for producing `electrickery` – feats of electrical magic these bawdy audiences have never seen before. To complete his act, Fox chooses Mim to play the `Electrical Venus`. Her popularity – and the electric-shocking kisses she can provide for a penny – mean takings are up, slop is off the menu and this spark between her and Fox must surely be love. But is this starring role her true worth, or is love worth more than a penny for an electrifying kiss?An intoxicating and atmospheric coming of age story set in the filth and thrill of a travelling show during the height of the Georgian Enlightenment.
