Which Mask have you been wearing?
Seven questions. One true name. About ten minutes. Free. The Mirror does not test you, measure you, or judge you. It holds up an honest reflection of which Mask has been running your life — so you can finally see it.
Seven questions. One true name.
Most women wear two or three Masks, well enough to convince themselves and everyone else. The Mirror names the one that has been costing you the most.
When you finish, the Mirror will name your Mask, the goddess who has known the women who wear her, and the Cape Town novel where a woman with your exact Mask arrives at Miriam's door and begins her work.
The Mirror has named your Mask
Your first invitation
Like every Cape Town novel, it begins at The Nest in Woodstock — the sage-green door, the fynbos garden, the rooibos on the stove. Miriam Sobukwe has been waiting at that door for forty years. She will meet you the way she meets every woman who crosses her threshold: Sawubona. I see you.
There is a seventh Mask. Auset, the Gatherer of the Scattered, does not have her own series — she walks every one. The Mirror names her only when the woman who has worn all six is ready to be received. If you felt yourself in more than one of these, you already know.
