Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The award-winning PostSecret project's most profound and stunning postcards to date.

For the past three years Frank Warren has invited people of all backgrounds and nationalities to send him creatively decorated postcards bearing secrets they have never before revealed. He has shared these PostSecrets on his award-winning blog, www.PostSecret.com, in an internationally traveling art exhibit, and in three electrifying books: the bestselling PostSecret, My Secret, and The Secret Lives of Men and Women.

Now, in his most extraordinary book yet, Warren again delves into our collective confessions, presenting a never-before-seen selection of provocative and moving PostSecrets. A Lifetime of Secrets lays bare our private fears, hopes, regrets, and desires, from people as young as eight and as old as eighty. From painful admissions of infidelity to breathtaking revelations and endearing sentiments, Warren's latest collection will shock and move readers of every age, revealing secrets that have haunted their creators for a lifetime.

Synopsis:

In Frank Warren's most extraordinary book yet, he presents the most provocative and outrageous postsecrets to date — the confessions of people whose secrets have been hidden their entire lives, and whose revelations will have a deeply significant effect on their futures.

I absolutely love the honesty of these books. Reading America's secret make me feel less insecure about my secrets, my problems, and my views. They've also succeeded in making me feel less dysfuntional. In my opinion Frank Warren is a genius for coming up with this idea, hat's off to him.
