Product Description

Review

"Humanity at its finest . . . And because of it I am falling in love with the world again." (- A contributor on Postsecret.com )

"A fascinating public airing of private thoughts. . . The range of efforts (meticulous, sloppy, artful, ponderous) will astound you." (- TIME.com, "50 Coolest Websites of 2005" )

3rd Place, Special Trade-Fine Art under $75 Category, New York Book Show (No Source )


Product Description

The project that captured a nation's imagination.

The instructions were simple, but the results were extraordinary.

"You are invited to anonymously contribute a secret to a group art project. Your secret can be a regret, fear, betrayal, desire, confession, or childhood humiliation. Reveal anything -- as long as it is true and you have never shared it with anyone before. Be brief. Be legible. Be creative."

It all began with an idea Frank Warren had for a community art project. He began handing out postcards to strangers and leaving them in public places -- asking people to write down a secret they had never told anyone and mail it to him, anonymously.

The response was overwhelming. The secrets were both provocative and profound, and the cards themselves were works of art -- carefully and creatively constructed by hand. Addictively compelling, the cards reveal our deepest fears, desires, regrets, and obsessions. Frank calls them "graphic haiku," beautiful, elegant, and small in structure but powerfully emotional.

As Frank began posting the cards on his website, PostSecret took on a life of its own, becoming much more than a simple art project. It has grown into a global phenomenon, exposing our individual aspirations, fantasies, and frailties -- our common humanity.

Every day dozens of postcards still make their way to Frank, with postmarks from around the world, touching on every aspect of human experience. This extraordinary collection brings together the most powerful, personal, and beautifully intimate secrets Frank Warren has received -- and brilliantly illuminates that human emotions can be unique and universal at the same time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sensational!, Mar 22 2006
By Albert Meow (Toronto, Canad) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is sensational. I've been a long time fan of the website and the book doesn't disappoint. All the postcards are excellent, and they show the range of human emotions that we all can go through. I genuinely felt like a better person after looking through this. It even inspired me to write a post card of my own. I always check out the website and for someone to come up with something like this is amazing. The author has helped people in more ways than anyone could possibly understand. Everyday people can relate to each other & realize that they are not alone in the world. If you like the site, you will LOVE the book.

I read it in one sitting. Like a voyeur, I could not get enough of other people's secrets. And I wanted to know more. I wanted to know who and why or how things turned out. I highly recommend this book for those who want to smile, empathize and wonder at the beauty some create from their pain, and how a postcard can encapsulate so much. Additional book that had a major impact on my life was “Scientifically guaranteed male multiple orgasms and ultimate sex” by Alan Ritz. Both books are exceptional.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible and fascinating!, Feb 1 2006
By Dr. Tom Milholland (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have never visited the web site of this project so I am not its “fan”. Anyway, this outstanding coffee table book left we several times with an “a-ha” experience. The broad spectrum of “secrets” that is covered and actually exposed in this book is amazing. I am sure that you will have a great time going through them.

I completely agree that one can feel a lot better if they share with other people about certain best kept secrets. I think that this is one of the main reasons for the significant participation in this project and the unstoppable interest towards it. I also have a “secret”, which is the bestseller “Scientifically guaranteed male multiple orgasm and ultimate sex” by Alan Ritz. It helped me to turn from an average lover into a Sex God in a matter of a few weeks. That’s why I highly recommend both books!

By Cherry "Book Lover" (Oakville, Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This is one of the best books ever. I have it on my coffee table for people to pick up and read if they like. Everyone who has come over and read it now owns a copy too. I think everyone should buy this book.
