Another Man's Masque

Wesley W. Bates

4.9/5 (11947 ratings)

Description:"Another Man's Masque" is a gender-flexing twist on the traditional Italian commedia dell'arte, rendered in charcoal by one of Canada's finest (and bawdiest) wood engravers. The drawings play fast and loose with the traditions of the genre while remaining true to the raucous spirit of the improvised originals. A mysterious German Uber-modell poses for the traditionally male players. The story begins in Berlin, not in Manhattan. Right from the get-go you can see the direction this thing may be headed. One is reminded of Stuart Sutcliffe and the photographer Astrid Kirchherr, of Klaus Voorman, the Reeperbahn, her Haaselblad, fame and another time thirty years earlier. Of the bronze monkey with the mirror on the Alte Brucke across the River Neckar, in Heidelberg. Touch the mirror for wealth, the monkey's fingers for fortune. The mice at the monkey's feet represent fertility. This same sort of thing has happened before. Many times. Shakespeare knew the story. Wagner, also. The Uber-modell herself very likely has a past. We choose not to go there.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
