Another Rebecca

Scott-Townsend, Tracey

Another Rebecca

A gripppng psychological family drama about Rebecca Grey, a sensitive girl who's spent her childhood caring for her alcoholic mother, Bex. They lurch from one poverty-stricken situation to another until Rebecca is hospitalised with exhaustion. While there, she has an illness-triggered hallucination which entangles her deeper than ever into her mother's psyche. As an art student, Rebecca can't understand why she is repeatedly impelled to paint a white horse in a blue landscape. And then there is the boy with yellow hair who she glimpses from the corner of her eye.Bex's life was frozen by a shocking tragedy when she was nineteen. Her 'great grief' caused her to make a decision which nobody must ever find out about. Rebecca has been implicated in her mother's lies since the moment of her birth, a fact that her father, Jack, has no inkling of.As Rebecca gets to know her father's new family, the gap between her and her mother widens. The mystery of Bex's dark past comes into focus when an old woman she has never met contacts Rebecca, claiming to be her grandmother.The thunder of hooves is getting closer for both Rebecca and Bex and the blond-haired boy is more and more often in Rebecca's dreams. Can Bex continue to keep Rebecca in the dark about the circumstances of her birth, or will the final twist in her tail set Rebecca free to make a new life of her own?Adapted from a short story written by the author when she was an art student, Another Rebecca was inspired by the painting There is no Night by Jack B. Yeats.
