Masks, Facades, and Reveals: A Writing Journey Anthology

Bys: Tolios, Gwen and Sonne-Lemare, Tauna

What we show and don't show to the world can be a delicate balance. Each mask on display is carefully painted, our facades built with focus, and our reveals calculated even if the consequences are not. From putting on airs for your parents to a sudden need for witness protection to discovering a grandparent's past, enjoy these 40 stories and poems from Chicago authors.

Explore the lengths to which people can go in a charade to protect themselves and others. Watch what happens when secrets come to light.
