Future Venice in technology age

Beautiful imagery in the imagined world of future Venice, parallelled with the online world created by master artisans. Everyone has a masque, or an avatar, that portrays them in the digital world. What happens when power struggles between the creators, an unknown digital presence, and a brilliant student of the digital arts?

one of the most thought-invoking novels i've read

talk about imagination! lewitt's metaphors and intriguing ideas of a futuristic world come together in a fantastic knot of science fiction and fantasy. be drawn in to a world of masked faces and surprising revelations.

A haunting evocation of a very possible future

Very briefly, INTERFACE MASQUE is one of those novels whose underlying assumptions are so well constructed that it draws you into its world completely. Read it. I assure you that you will never again hear cyberspace described as "the Information Superhighway" without thinking that Lewin's "Infosea" is a much, much better metaphor.
