A compelling collection of anonymous postcards sent during
lockdown, revealing hilarious, salacious, relatable and sometimes
heartbreaking secret confessions.In the thick of the 2021
coronavirus lockdown, designer and shopowner Eleanor Tattersfield
put out a call on Instagram: 'I'll send you a postcard, you send me
a secret'. Lockdown Secrets is an astonishing record of what
happened next.Postcards poured in, some beautifully decorated, some
simply handwritten, but each one anonymously sharing a very
personal confession. They came from people of all ages and all
walks of life, including some celebrities. Prominent themes began
to emerge: relationships, sex, masturbation, food, rebellion,
loneliness and, surprisingly, a lot of love for lockdown
itself.This beautiful book brings together the best of the
postcards Eleanor received, and all human life is here: furtive
infidelities, bad behaviour in the local bakery, sneaking off for
baths during a busy homeschooling schedule, rediscovered marital
bliss, and, occasionally, poignant moments of sadness and
despair.We've all been through the lockdown experience, and every
reader will find something to relate to in this fascinating
collection, a perfect snapshot of an extraordinary time.
Ever wondered what we get up to behind closed doors? This anonymous
collection of postcards will show you, in glorious technicolour
detail. Following on from her bestselling Lockdown Secrets, queen
of postcards Eleanor Tattersfield turns her attention to the sex
lives of the nation. This time round, she put out a call on social
media for people to reveal their deepest, darkest, funniest and
even their most unsavoury sex habits, in postcard form. She was
overwhelmed by replies, and the very best of them are collected in
this book, hand-crafted and beautifully decorated. You'll be
shocked and seduced by the themes explored, where truly anything
goes! Salacious, scurrilous and very definitely saucy, this book is
not for the faint-hearted but provides a fascinating record of how
we take our pleasures.
