Story
Artist Harriet Burden, consumed by fury at the lack of recognition she has received from the New York art establishment, embarks on an experiment: she hides her identity behind three male fronts who exhibit her work as their own. And yet, even after she has unmasked herself, there are those who refuse to believe she is the woman behind the men.

Story
As well as being a prize-winning, best-selling novelist, Siri Hustvedt is widely regarded as a leading thinker in the fields of neurology, feminism, art criticism and philosophy. She believes passionately that art and science are too often kept separate and that conversations across disciplines are vital to increasing our knowledge of the human mind and body, how they connect and how we think, feel and see.

Story
The controversial father of psychiatry and psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud charted the human unconscious, brought us the talking cure, and wrote books that now rank among the classics of world literature. In On the Couch, the great analyst is analyzed by some of today's great writers and thinkers, who help us understand the man who has helped us understand ourselves as much, if not more, than anyone else, ever. The result is a fresh, multifaceted reassessment of Freud's continuing relevance and influence on ideas, literature, culture, science, and more.

Story
Iris Vegan, a graduate student living alone and impoverished in New York, encounters four strong characters who fascinate and in different ways subordinate her: an inscrutable urban recluse who employs her to record the possessions of a murdered woman; a photographer whose eerie portrait of Iris takes on a life of its own; an old woman in hospital who tries to claim a remnant of the ailing Iris; and a professor she has an affair with.

Story
Die junge S. H. bezieht 1979 ein heruntergekommenes Zimmer in New York. Sie kommt direkt aus der Provinz, und als angehende Schriftstellerin genießt sie den Schmutz wie den Glanz der neuen Stadt. Alles saugt sie begierig auf. So auch, durch die papierdünnen Wände, die klagenden Monologe ihrer Nachbarin Lucy Brite. Von Misshandlung ist die Rede, von Kindstod, ja von Mord. Lucy wird für S. H. zur Obsession. Bis eines Nachts ein dramatisches Ereignis in S. H.s Wohnung dazu führt, dass sich die beiden Frauen zum ersten Mal gegenüberstehen.

Harriet Burden ist die Frau eines einflussreichen New Yorker Galeristen. Nach dessen vorzeitigem Tod beginnt sie ein heimliches Experiment: eine Karriere als Installationskünstlerin, die sich hinter dem angeblichen Werk dreier männlicher "Masken" verbirgt, das in Wahrheit sie selbst erschaffen hat. Doch der Faustische Handel schlägt fehl - einer dieser Maskenmänner, selbst ein bekannter Künstler, durchkreuzt ihr Rollenspiel und setzt sein eigenes dagegen. Es kommt zum Kampf zweier widerstreitender großer Geister - einem Kampf auf Leben und Tod.
