"Hear My Voice: My Life Unmasked brings new directions to the genre of the memoir. Rather than just relying on concise prose descriptions and inspirational insights, the author underpins her stories through photos, images, and the occasional poetic line. Barbara's journey to discover meaning, purpose, and community through mask making becomes a story of grace, power, and awakening. The result is a beautifully crafted book full of hope and honesty."
