In their lives, people learn how to embellish good personal
qualities while simultaneously concealing their weak posts. This book, billed
as a satirical guide to keeping secrets, looks at the many ways individuals
closet their secrets, which the authors consider a self-deluding method of
living one’s life. The narrative aims to be a parodic take on the self-help
genre, providing asinine resolutions about how to cover up inane secrets before
turning to something known as “The Skeleton Cure.” The preface opens the book with
an indication that most have skeletons in their closets, how one can find it
entertaining to play with them when belonging to somebody else.
The authors continue with the well-known assertion that one’s secrets aren’t always secure, and present a set of guidelines for reading the book, among them warning readers not to use them to commit illegal acts. After the preface, the writers acknowledge various individuals in the production of their book, including family and friends, although they indicate that the openness and vulnerability of them inspired it, not to mention their publishing team, editor, and cover artist.
The guide contains a second introduction opened by a Benjamin Franklin quote that asserts that most people feel insecure in modern society. The intro informs that people find it both offensive and delightful when they see skeletons in someone’s closets, such as those of friends, family, celebrities, and politicians. Most of the book is spent detailing the various kinds of skeletons in closets, concluding with what the writers call “The Skeleton Cure,” which overall accounts for a humorous, engaging tale that teaches readers good points about negative characteristics and traits.
