That Look: A Child of Sexual Abuse Remembers
At seventy years old, Kay Fraser slowly began to recall the sexual abuse she experienced as a young child, and considered the impact it had on her life. Twenty years previously, her mother had hinted at the abuse and some details were revealed, but Kay had buried it deep inside herself.
After publishing her first book, It's part of who I am, about her mother's sixty-year spiritual journey, Kay realised something was not right. She went on to write two further chapters, and in doing so revealed the perversions of her father and the abuse she suffered in his care.
Originally conceiving a screenplay, with an aim to encourage openness about sexual abuse in families, Kay soon found that the detailed recall required to write these scenes resulted in more memories surfacing from her subconscious. She now tells her full story in this memoir, and her original objective has not wavered.
From her home on a picturesque mountain in Queensland, Kay looks back, and remembers a lifelong comfort - Paul Gallico's tale of a snow goose who is healed and flies high and free.
