Synopsis

How far can mental overload take us? Who hasn't felt on the verge of collapse, sadness, or a lack of patience? 
These are the questions that inspired the stories in The Invisible Burden: a collection of nineteen stories that explore the emotional weight and psychological overload that each character unknowingly carries. These burdens will lead them to extreme situations such as ridicule, loneliness, madness, or, in some cases, death. These are stories that speak about pain. 
With a clear and direct style, Miguel Ángel Rupérez invites us to delve into life situations where harshness, tragedy, and irony play a fundamental role. His stories go straight to the point, without beating around the bush, always leaving room for reflection. It is an ideal book for those who enjoy short but profound reading. 
The Invisible Burden will not leave you indifferent. True emotion is never in the words of the stories, but in what they awaken within each reader.

    Anton Chekhov has begun his literature career in the 1880s. First he deprecated turning a person into slave. Later he began to make higher demands to his characters and to blame not only their environment, but also themselves for losing their dignity and for enslavement and abjection."The Album" is a story of an official being congratulated on his jubilee and becoming an album with portraits of his colleagues as a gift. Touched to the depth of his soul he comes home to get warm and loving congratulations there, but as the album that he has just highly valued was taken by kids, his attitude weirdly changes, but the reasons thereof are left to us entirely. "The Album" will definitely set you thinking and probably check your own behavior and even thoughts as well.A SmartTouch Media production.
