Speech of the Masquerade is a collection of poetry unmasking the rawness of human emotions. The collection deals with issues which hit close to home and are close to the heart. Speech of the Masquerade is about voicing our stories, unveiling our beautiful souls, and unmasking ourselves so that the world can see who we are and how we feel. Speech of the Masquerade is by turns melodramatic, playful, and angst-ridden, and should be required reading for parents and teachers who may have forgotten how it feels to be a teen in turmoil. Kendall Driscoll is the contemplative voice of the Millennials. J.C. Elkin, author of World Class: Poems Inspired by the ESL Classroom
