FRANCESCA MILLICAN-SLATER

ME, MYSELF AND MISS GIBBS

In 2003, Francesca Millican-Slater bought a second hand postcard for 50p. The postcard, sent from Lincoln to London was addressed to a Miss L Gibbs of 62 Douglas Buildings, Marshalsea Road, Borough. Sent on July 15th 1910, the message on the back simply read: “Be careful tomorrow. A.C.”

Part detective noir, part biography, Francesca investigates the message on a postcard sent 100 years ago and finds herself obsessed by the life of the woman that received it. How much can she uncover from just a name on the back of a postcard? What happens when she starts tracing a history that isn’t her own? And why did Miss Gibbs have to be careful tomorrow?
