‘The Secret’ Author Rhonda Byrne Has New Release in November

The author of the million-selling self-help book “The Secret” is aiming even higher with her next work.

Rhonda Byrne's “The Greatest Secret” is coming out Nov. 24, HarperOne announced Friday.

According to the publisher, “The Greatest Secret” takes readers on a journey that provides “the most direct way out for those experiencing hardship and the path to end pain and suffering endured by so many.”

Byrne said in a statement that “With every step you take through this book, you will become happier and your life will become more effortless, fears and uncertainty of the future will no longer plague you, anxiety and stress about your daily struggles or world events will dissolve, and you can and will be free of every form of suffering.”

Byrne's new book, like “The Secret,” will be released through publisher Judith Curr. She was head of the Simon & Schuster imprint Atria Books in 2006 when “The Secret” came out, and she is now president and publisher of HarperOne.

“The Secret" has sold more than 35 million copies worldwide. A film adaptation starring Katie Holmes came out last month.

The Royal Institute of Traditional Arts (Wrth) participated in the Saudi Cultural Week at Expo 2025 in Osaka, Japan, from July 12 to 15. The event aimed to enhance the international presence of Saudi traditional arts, empower entrepreneurs, and provide live experiences for the public.

The event coincided with the "Year of Handicrafts 2025" and celebrated the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Japan, the Saudi Press Agency said on Tuesday.

During its participation, the institute presented a unique piece entitled "Kimono Bisht,” an artistic fusion of the Saudi bisht and the Japanese kimono, showcasing a distinctive cultural embodiment that blends symbolism and innovation from both ancient cultures.

The live artwork was created in collaboration between Saudi artisan Salman Al-Hamad and Japanese artist Yuho Ohkota. Bisht embroidery techniques were skillfully integrated into a contemporary kimono design, resulting in a garment that reflects a vibrant visual dialogue through the language of art.

The creation underscores the Royal Institute of Traditional Arts' efforts to employ crafts and heritage in developing contemporary content with global visual appeal and a profound artistic message. It reinforces the institute's role as a leading entity in highlighting national identity and promoting Saudi traditional arts both locally and internationally.

The institute is committed to preserving heritage, honoring living treasures, distinguished individuals, and pioneers in the field of traditional arts, while supporting national talent and encouraging interest in learning and developing these cultural expressions.
