Amazon.com Review
At the beginning of 2005, Frank Warren launched a new blog called PostSecret as an experiment in community art, inviting strangers to mail him anonymous postcards that made art out of their innermost secrets and then posting a selection of the cards every week on his blog. Within a year, his blog was one of the five most popular in the world, and his first book, PostSecret, was one of the surprise bestsellers of 2005. My Secret is his second book, a collection of cards from teens and college students--none of which has been shown on the website--that carries the same emotional power and creativity that have made Warren's project a phenomenon. We are featuring seven postcards from the book here: see two of them on this page, and click on the numbers below to see five more. | Click on the numbers below to see five more postcards from My Secret | | [ 1 ] | [ 2 ] | [ 3 ] | [ 4 ] | [ 5 ] |
Product Description
Postsecret.com founder Frank Warren is back with a fresh and compelling companion to his wildly popular Los Angeles Times bestseller, PostSecret. For My Secret, a collectible, paper-over-board book that includes a page of vibrant, decorative stickers, Warren has personally selected never-before-seen anonymous postcards created by teens and college students from across the country. Each card bears an intimate and powerful secretat turns inspirational, shocking, hilarious, and poeticthat is told through original illustrations, photographs, collages, and other creative means. Sample messages include: *"I am avoiding you because you are socially below me." *"I know the truth to the lie my parents tell... " *"My friends think I was homeschooled. I spent high school in juvi." A unique and important book that will appeal to both young adults and their parents, My Secret offers a raw and revealing glimpse into the real lives of today's teens and twentysomethings. Choosing their own handmade postcards over email or text messages, teens and college students express their hopes, fears, and wildest confessions in a way that truly represents their diverse personalities and voices.
