ABOUT THE BOOK We all prepare a mask for all the masks we meet every day. Can anyone really tell what is behind those masks? Was the sadistic Arthur in The Golden Omega, really the angel his mask depicted? Was his daughter Elena, deceiver of all the men she had ever been with, married or not, really the charmer her mask suggested? Or was Eben, the millionaire, in spite of his connection with the Chicago mob, as cultivated and generous as his mask proclaimed? Was violent bully Corporal Burt, in ?Nig-Nog,? really the beast he boasted about? In The Tower was Too High, were the three spinster sisters, really closet homicidal maniacs? Was Johann, the ex-pat fugitive poet, the only truth-teller in the land? Or was it Private Larry Smythe because he slept with his eyes open? All were not as they seemed, especially Ally in The Man in the Scottish Lunatic Asylum, who wore the timely mask of derangement so naturally. But what were their real natures? Among the steep valleys and ski slopes of S

ABOUT THE BOOK Nobody has fought harder for a dignified, lively and honourable theatre in Wales than Dedwydd Jones, the author of this angry book. As playwright, as polemicist, as irrepressible arguer, he has himself been a living exemplar of what a theatrical tradition ought to be. His opponents have been varied and many, but in particular he has always tilted his lance against the bureaucratic pillars of what passes as the theatrical Establishment in Wales. It seems to me that there are only two legitimate purposes for Welsh national theatre. The first is to encourage the vitality of the indigenous culture, by performing Welsh plays of the past, and by giving a stage to Welsh playwrights and actors of the present. The second is to present to Welsh people plays of the highest possible international standards -- plays from the international repertoire. As I understand it, these are Dedwydd s convictions too, and his noble battle for them, against heavy odds and much discouragemen

ABOUT THE BOOK Set in a fantasy backdrop with adventure, magic and Extra Sensory Perception, the young adult novel is targeted at kids from 10 through to about 14 years of age. Author Maryann Weston who lives in country NSW wrote the book for her three teenage boys, including one who has a love of skateboarding. ?I entered their world and the result is a real page turner that?s relevant and a good read for teens. And yes, there is plenty of skateboarding action combined with adventure, action and magic,? she says. ?There is also a strong anti-bullying message that runs through the book. When bullying happens it?s heartbreaking for a parent and you are at a loss to know how to control it, particularly when it happens over Facebook or involves large numbers of school kids where the word has spread that your child is ?fair game?,? she says. ?The book?s message is that it?s important to take control of the situation, but more importantly to teach your child strategies to deal with bu

ABOUT THE BOOK Alaric, son of a Gothic clan leader, wants nothing more than to live an adventure.
