Based on images of disguise in literature, theater, and opera, this short-story cycle explores themes of identity and subterfuge in a fictional fugue that ranges from comic to poignant. Into the librettos of Don Giovanni, Tosca, Rigoletto, and other operas, Green weaves the authentic biographies of their singers and composers, modern-day settings, and his own imaginative twists. Throughout Voices in a Mask, characters obscure and reveal themselves as art mimics life and life, art. Ultimately the very acts of masking and projecting reveal a truth about the power of art and its inherent deceptions.

People like to wear masks all the time, and I'm not talking about the masks we're wearing now due to the pandemic. I'm talking about the masks we put on when we are interacting with others. We hide who we really are and we transform into a different person depending on the setting. We put on a mask when we meet relatives, we put on a mask at our work, and we put on a mask on when we are with friends (most of them). And the only time we are not wearing a mask is when we are alone. Not all of us do it in the same degree, and there are different reasons for doing it. But the most common is that we are afraid of being criticized and judged. So we look for acceptance in others and we conform. We are not sure of what our real selves will be like, so we become what we think will be liked more. If we are introverts, we change a bit to seem more extravert. If we are weird, we become more "normal" to fit in. We hide what makes us unique and authentic because we are not sure others will like it. And many times we are being rewarded for it. People seem to approve of this new, upgraded version of you, so you keep the small change. Then people expect you to behave like that, so you have to keep the facade. And then you add a bit more, and a bit more, until you are different enough to exhaust yourself by playing this role. I believe this is the main reason some people exhaust themselves in social settings. The mask needs energy to stay in place. This is not the same as being casual and carefree with friends, and more formal and careful at work settings. This is normal. In this book, you will learn how to hide part of your personality based on the premise of approval. Stop pretending to be someone you are not. It is ok to be yourself. The only one that needs to accept you is YOU!Peace & Love

Cass and her mom have always stood on their own against the world. Then Cass learns she had a grandmother, one who was never part of her life, one who has just died and left her and her mother the first house they could call their own. But with it comes more questions than answers: Why is her Mom so determined not to live there? Why was this relative kept so secret? And what is the unusual mask, forgotten in a drawer, trying to tell her? Strange dreams, strange voices, and strange incidents all lead Cass closer to solving the mystery and making connections she never dreamed she had.

From Book 1, City of Masks: When a royal conspiracy topples the noble House Falco, Sofia must take up the burden of her father's mantle and assume guardianship of his Greatmask. Yet the sentient bone mask, powerful enough to Compel those around her, will not speak, and Sofia, the first female Protector in a hundred years, is left defenceless. Hunted by the king, she is driven from the palace and must fight for survival, alone in the cold streets of Anaskar. There, she crosses paths with Notch, a bitter mercenary with problems of his own. Accused of murder, Notch is trying to clear his name while hunted by the city's robed assassins, the very people who are now searching for Sofia. To take back their city and cast down the tyrant on the throne, Sofia and Notch must face the blades of Anaskar's assassins, the rage of a mighty sea beast, and the mysterious Lupo, a man with a Greatmask of his own, who has masterminded vicious terrorist attacks on the city that spurned him. Their struggle threatens to tear the city – and the kingdom - into shreds. Books 1-3 of the Bone Mask Cycle available in one set!

Masquerade, both literal and metaphorical, is now a central concept on many disciplines. This timely volume explores and revisits the role of disguise in constructing, expressing and representing marginalised identities, and in undermining easy distinctions between 'true' identity and artifice. The book is interdisciplinary in approach, spanning a diverse range of cultures and narrative voices. It provides provocative and nuanced ways of thinking about masquerade as a tool for construction, and a tool for critique. The essays interrogate such themes as: *mask and carnival *fetish fashion *stigma of illegitimacy *femininity as masquerade *lesbian masks *cross-dressing in Jewish folk theatre *the mask in seventeenth and eighteenth century London and nineteenth century France *the voice as mask.

Jane is a very good girl. But #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz shows that appearances can be deceiving—in a deadly way... She appears out of nowhere, a beautiful teenage girl in the middle of traffic on a busy day. Paul and Carol Tracy are drawn to her—she's the child they never thought they could have. But then Carol's nightmares begin—the ghastly sounds in the night...the bloody face in the mirror...the razor-sharp ax. Jane can't remember her past. And as Carol attempts to help her uncover who she was, she has no idea of the horrors that await...
