1 1 y separately published work icon Disguises Sally Leigh , Hobart : Burville Books , 2007 Z1407999 2007 single work novel young adult 'Cathie Lee is a Gen Y Australian girl - but as a second generation Chinese, she's forced to wear a Chinese disguise. That's cool - until Pauline Hanson strikes and Cathie experiences racism from her fellow Australians. She writes about one nasty experience that wins an essay competition - and that decides her career: journalism. For a student assignment, she interviews Peter Harris, a harmless looking old man she meets in a cafe. But the story he tells about a love affair in 'sixties Hong Kong, involving the Cultural Revolution, police corruption and murky family secrets, detonates a time bomb that blows Cathie's life apart.'
