Secrets.
You are sure to find enjoyment within these pages..
House of Secrets is a collection of twenty-six short stories related in some manner to guarding or uncovering secrets, written by emerging writers who have significant connections to the State of Ohio.
From these related but conflicting impulses, we develop trust and discretion and learn to cherish the power of knowledge.
The delicate balance between preserving, revealing, and discovering secrets is part of our humanity.
Our often insatiable curiosity leads us to uncover buried truths, to unravel the mysteries others try to keep to themselves.
If keeping secrets is integral to the human soul, so is the desire to uncover the secrets of others.
Secrets also give us a measure of control, allowing us to decide what we reveal to the world and what we reserve for ourselves.
They are hidden compartments within each of us where we store our deepest hopes, fears, desires, and vulnerabilities.
They are an integral part of the human experience.
