| hilo book series: PostSecret Frank Warren, 2005-11-29 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. |

| hilo book series: Matrix Lauren Groff, Dorință mascată de putere sau devotament sincer față de aproape? Aceasta e doar una dintre întrebările pe care le pune în lumină romanul lui Groff. Marie, o bastardă la curtea regală franceză, e trimisă la vârsta de șaptesprezece ani să se ocupe în Anglia de o mănăstire aflată în paragină. Odată devenită stareță, Marie (viitoarea poetă faimoasă pentru laiurile sale) o reconstruiește din temelii: dintr-un loc stăpânit de foamete și boală, abația ajunge să le ofere siguranță și prosperitate măicuțelor. Un scut în fața oricăror adversități, mănăstirea devine un spațiu aproape utopic, stârnind vâlvă și stupoare. Inspirată de viziunile pe care le are cu fecioara Maria, stareța își cultivă însă nestingherită propriile ambiții, căutând, totodată, un sens măreț în existența ei și a surorilor sale. Eroina cu inteligență ascuțită și spirit întreprinzător, meditația asupra credinței religioase, asupra sacralității și senzualității fac din captivantul roman al lui Lauren Groff o lectură de actualitate. |

| hilo book series: Swim The Fly Don Calame, 2011-05-09 Three boys, one summertime goal: to see a real-live naked girl. Fifteen-year-old Matt Gratton and his two best friends, Coop and Sean, always set themselves a summertime goal. This year's? To see a real-live naked girl for the first time - quite a challenge, given that none of the guys have the nerve to even ask a girl out on a date. But catching a girl in the buff starts to look easy compared to Matt's other summertime aspiration: to swim the 100-yard butterfly (the hardest stroke known to God or man) as a way to impress Kelly West, the sizzling new star of the swim team. In the spirit of Hollywood's blockbuster comedies, screenwriter-turned-YA-novelist Don Calame unleashes a true ode to the adolescent male: characters who are side-splittingly funny, sometimes crude, yet always full of heart. |
