The Fantastic Book of Everybody's Secrets

Everybody has their secrets.
Who, for instance, is the hooded figure hiding in the bushes outside a young man’s house? Why does the same stranger keep appearing in the background of a family’s holiday photographs? What makes a woman stand mesmerized by two children in a school playground—children she’s never met but whose names she knows well? All will be revealed . . . but at a cost. As Sophie Hannah uncovers the dark obsessions and strange longings behind the most ordinary relationships, life will never seem quite the same again.

  • Matt & Charlhas quoted4 years ago
    HERE OUGHT TO BE A WORD TO DESCRIBE THE PERSON WE most wish we had never met. I won’t invent one – I shudder at the thought – but somebody should, so that we know to expect that person in our lives, even if they haven’t arrived yet.
