Masks beneath masks until suddenly the bare bloodless skull.

In Salman Rushdie's "The Satanic Verses", the phrase "Masks beneath masks until suddenly the bare bloodless skull" metaphorically represents the layers of identity and facade that individuals wear in society. It suggests that people often hide their true selves behind various personas, complicating their understanding of authenticity. This peeling away of layers can lead to a stark revelation of one's essence, which is stark and unembellished.
