There seems to be a strong separation between the literal and the metaphorical here. Perhaps the expression "unvarnished truth" should substitute for "naked truth." At any rate, they seem to have blown a reasonable opportunity to having an excuse for putting a naked person on a book cover to increase book sales.
I never heard of the author. She/he lost her best shot.
ReplyDeleteWhen I get my book published, I'm going to put a naked photo of myself on the cover. People will pay double to not buy the book, and I'll be rich.
ReplyDeleteA so-so cover.
