Quiet Demons in Black Life
Standing in the Shadows: Understanding and Overcoming Depression in Black Men, by John Head. Broadway Books, $22.95. No Secrets, No Lies: How Black Families Can Heal From Sexual Abuse, by Robin D. Stone, Broadway Books, $23.95. These books break the longstanding silence about two problems as they affect African-Americans: depression in black men and sexual abuse, often at the hands of family members. Both may be considered among the last taboos in black culture, made that way by a belief system that regards men who are open about feelings as unmanly, and has conspired to keep children quiet and vulnerable, and women quiet and exploited.. John Head book Standing in the Shadows: Understanding and Overcoming Depression in Black Men discusses reasons why black men find it difficult to acknowledge depression and seek help; holds that black men suffering mental illness are often mistakenly regarded by society as troublemakers; Robin D Stone book No Secrets, No Lies: How Black Families Can Heal From Sexual Abuse holds that one reason abuse remains secret is because black society has historically lived with fear and oppression; interviews victims of abuse and caregivers; photos (M)

Mickeys Home is an enigmatic little play of secrets, guilt and roiled psyches that unravel in the apartment of an elderly Jewish couple on the Lower East Side.

The Secrets, And Lies, Of Families
LONG DAYS JOURNEY INTO NIGHT -- Eugene ONeills masterwork is the King Lear of the American theater -- a play of such intensity, gravity, unwieldiness and, yes, greatness that if a production hits even half of its depth-charging dramatic notes, its a big deal. The odds are automatically improved in this springs Broadway production, however, by the participation of Vanessa Redgrave, who is portraying the morphine-sneaking mother and who is famous for fearlessly burrowing into darkness to bring a character to light. The promising cast is rounded out by Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robert Sean Leonard as the unhappy brothers and, as their swashbuckling, penny-pinching dad, Brian Dennehy, who collaborated to stunning effect with this productions director, Robert Falls, on Death of a Salesman..

The Most Private Spot Primps for Its Public
THE bathroom was once a place where people brushed their teeth, scrubbed their bodies and visited what Elsie de Wolfe coyly called the unmentionable (she hid it under flip-seat Louis XVI-style chairs). The room was small, 35 square feet, and designed for hygiene. But over the last decade, Americans have been transforming their water closets into the ultimate personal refuge, one decorated as carefully as any other room in the house -- and sometimes incorporating the same costly designer elements. Stainless-steel sinks once reserved for the kitchen. Hand-painted walls that would do justice to an impress-the-guests entrance hall. Glowing exotic woods once used to lend baronial character to a gentlemans library. And enough mosaics in the style of the ancient world to outfit Gladiator 2. In the words of Peter Pawlak, an architect with Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects in Manhattan, The austerity of the white bathroom is passé..

Mechanics of Marriage And a Bit of Ambiguity
It would seem to be a situation all too familiar from the headlines of the last two years: a pretty, blond Hollywood wife is tatooed with bruises she says came from her husband, a virile good guy of a public idol. Yes, the police have been summoned, she says, but have administered nothing more than a slap on the wrists. Why dont they just say the name? said a woman during the intermission of a recent performance of Where the Truth Lies, an earnest domestic drama by Catherine Butterfield. At that point, the play had all the earmarks of a topical television movie, cashing in on lingering interest in the O. J. Simpson trial. But in the second act, the work turned an unexpected corner into ambiguity. As the plays literal-minded title suggests, things are not what they seem, after all. Or are they?
