Description
An Anthology of a Self
Book Summary
This work is much more than a collection of poems: it is the testament of a six-year inner journey in search of a poetic and personal identity. The author undergoes a deconstruction that begins with the rejection of a self-imposed self, transforming what was intended to be a lyrical apprenticeship into an exploration of the deepest corners of memory. A poetry collection that invites the reader to accompany a process of self-knowledge, forgiveness, and reconstruction.
What is it about?
The work is structured as a poetic journey where the author faces the different facets of his being: the man, the child, Pedro, and the Self. Each poem is built upon real-life experiences and confused emotions, reflecting the process of getting to know oneself again and, at the same time, attempting to forgive oneself. Through the verses, the tensions between imposed and authentic identity are explored, in a journey that goes from initial rejection to possible reconciliation with oneself.
