Description
Invented Moments of Love
Book Summary
Manuel San Martín Palacios invites us on an intimate journey through poetry with "Invented Moments of Love." In this collection, the author explores the fine line between lived experience and imagination, presenting brief poems that distill emotion and truth. These are not memories, but rather shared dreams where love, desire, and memory intertwine. The reader will find a work that goes beyond suggestion, actively participating in the creation of those moments which, although invented, resonate with the authenticity of what has been lived and dreamed.
What is it about?
The work is built from brief poems that capture fleeting moments of love and desire. The author plays with the idea that no one can invent a life or moments of love without having experienced them in some way, whether through suffering or joy. Therefore, the verses are not mere fantasies, but are imbued with a vital sap that makes them palpable. Imagination, far from being an escape, becomes the vehicle to give shape to those dreams that seem like memories. The reader does not observe from the outside, but feels like a participant in the poet's dream, sharing his most intimate and revealing moments.
