His novel begins with Sandy Woodrow, the head of chancery at Britain's High Commission in Nairobi, receiving the news that the wife of a fellow British diplomat has been murdered.
The previously enigmatic Ghita, Tessa's friend, becomes less enigmatic late in the novel when we are suddenly allowed into her thoughts as she pursues the truth about the murder.
It dramatises the revelation of a troubled, inquiring, bloody-minded protagonist "behind" the bland, cooperative exterior of Justin Quayle, Foreign Office man. The "constant gardener" of the title becomes a character of unguessed passions.

 The Man Behind the Mask by Joshua Katz
It is amazing to me that this novel was written at a time when 1998 lay in the future, although I do consider the possibility that it was updated for the film adaptation.
The hero is a libertarian, who begins the movie by violently intervening as policemen prepare to rape a young woman.
When you walk out of the theater wondering when we will have a man in a mask, just remember this — he probably will be found near the most important movement within the libertarian world.

 Striking Through the Pasteboard Mask
The unreasoning force serves as the mask for the unknown, reasoning force, and Ahab desires to strike through this mask, which in his eye is the white whale, in order to confront the reasoning force that exists behind it.
In the novel, the narrator has opted for an invisible identity to escape those perceptions that are immediately imposed on him because of the color of his skin.
If the mask is subject to social constructions then the mask itself is loosely defined; it is these very same loose definitions that the narrator in The Invisible Man finds difficult to grapple with.

 The Woman Behind the Mask: The Role of Christine in Adaptations of Leroux's Phantom of the Opera
While all of these novels draw on the characters as defined by Leroux and on the symbols associated with the Leroux story (masks, music, angels, roses, etc.), they differ to the extent to which they adhere to or depart from the various elements of the original novel.
In all these novels, whether she plays student, muse, lover, or something in between, Christine is defined in relationship to Erik, or sometimes to Raoul or to her father.
In my novel I highlighted the tidbits that Leroux provided to individualize Christine and used them to threaten the holds that both Raoul and Erik hold over her: Christine's devotion to her ailing adopted grandmother often calls her away from the Opera and motivates her to inquire about employment in her native Sweden.

 The Man Behind The Iron Mask
The Man in the Iron Mask begins with the realization that the three musketeers, who once pledged ''all for one and one for all!'' are older (if not necessarily wiser) and long ago took divergent paths.
But their fates will once again be intertwined with that of D'Artagnan (Gabriel Byrne), who serves as the chief guard of Louis XIV (Leonardo DiCaprio), the supremely demanding, arrogant and randy young king of France.
But The Man in the Iron Mask is just cleverly packaged fluff, not unlike the candy bar that dubiously perpetuates the musketeers' fame.

At the end of the novel, Barney (the hospital orderly) sighted Clarice and Hannibal at the Opera house of Buenos Aries.

 Huckleberry Finn
The function of the minstrel mask, the “fl-faced figure of white fun,” was “to veil the humanity of Negroes thus reduced to a sign, and to repress the white audience’s awareness of its moral identification with its own acts and with the human ambiguities pushed behind the mask” (Elision 421).
Jim has little choice but to bow to Tom’s dehumanizing, manipulative plan, hiding behind the protective minstrel mask of “humility, ignorance, emotional deadpan, deference and placatory compliance” that all slaves were forced to wear in order to survive under white supremacy and hostility (MacLeod 12).
However, by giving Jim one of the central voices in the novel and demonstrating Jim’s capacity to feel deep, human emotions, Twain demonstrates the contradictions of his culture, portraying Jim through the minstrel stereotype meanwhile revealing the fundamental reality of African American humanity.

Allende, who already is celebrated for her gift of storytelling in such best sellers as Daughter of Fortune, The House of Spirits and Eva Luna, gives Zorro the feel of a folk or fairy tale with her ability to draw readers in, hold their attention and keep the story moving at an exciting pace.
The book has a suspenseful air, and it's not until the end that the novel's unidentified narrator is unmasked.
Her well-timed novel precedes the October film release of The Legend of Zorro, starring Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, the sequel to 1998's The Mask of Zorro.

During her adventure, which is as much a journey of the spirit as of the flesh, O yields to torture and degradations, along with all manner of accouterments and lovers.
Her plan worked: Paulhan helped have the novel published, wrote the introduction (titled "Happiness in Slavery") and the couple stayed together until his death in the late 1960's.

Zorro first made his appearance in Johnston McCully's story "The Curse of Capistrano", published in 1919: scholars suggest that McCully may have modelled the character on the infamous Californian bandit Joaquin Murieta, adding a touch or two of the Scarlet Pimpernel for good measure.
There is another Zorro film, entirely unrelated to the Allende novel, starring Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, due for release later this year, and there is also a Zorro musical in development by flamenco-lite maestros the Gypsy Kings.
But Allende's real insight is into Zorro's use of the mask - in the end, after his adventures, he doesn't want to take it off.
