I recognize the Plato shadows on a wall ref and someone commented about Sisyphus. Obviously, Saddam was in a hole. What's the rest? Looks like pick-axe people are part of a 2d video game. I don't get anything other than what I've described.

The pick-axe is a "motivational" meme about don't giving up, because the diamonds could be just around.

That story is horrifying

The caption is a reference to "The myth of sisyphus" by Albert Camus. "One must imagine Sisyphus happy". Good book.

That one is a pretty deep reference.

if the books is any good is the title just clickbait?

The gray silhouette in the hole is a nutty putty cave reference. It's pretty horrifying. Tl;dr version, cave exlorer gets so stuck it's actually impossible to remove him.
