'Clear and powerful' (Kirkus), Masks is perhaps Fumiko Enchi's finest work and her first to be translated into English. In this stunning and subtle novel about seduction and infidelity in latter-day Japan and about the destructive force of feminine jealousy and resentment, Mieko Togano, a handsome and cultivated woman in her 50s, manipulates-for her own bizarre purposes-the relationship between her widowed daughter-in-law, Yasuko, and the two men in love with her. | Masks by Fumiko Enchi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
