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.
