A decade ago, Frank Warren began a community art project that captured popular imagination and became a worldwide obsession. He handed out postcards to strangers and left them in public places-asking people to share a secret they had never told anyone and mail them back to him anonymously. More than half a million secrets, 600 million hits to the award-winning PostSecret blog www.postsecret.com , and five huge bestsellers later, the PostSecret phenomenon is bigger than ever.
By turns this funny, heartbreaking, thoughtful, and moving, this compendium of graphic haiku offers an intimate glimpse into both individual private lives and into our shared humanity.
