Smiley is a deeply introspective journey through memory, loss, and self-reclamation. Blending poetry and narrative, this collection explores the fractures of childhood, the weight of family, and the quiet echoes of trauma that follow us into adulthood.

Produktbeschreibung
Smiley is a deeply introspective journey through memory, loss, and self-reclamation. Blending poetry and narrative, this collection explores the fractures of childhood, the weight of family, and the quiet echoes of trauma that follow us into adulthood. Through raw storytelling and sharp reflection, Smiley confronts what it means to grow up under the shadow of pain and still find a way to smile. From "Cocoon", where the body is both a prison and a transformation, peeling away the past in painful metamorphosis, to "Rage", a raw, unflinching reckoning with trauma, forgiveness, and the fire that pain leaves behind, each piece unravels what it means to carry history in your skin-to bloom despite the bruises, to rise from the wreckage of who you used to be. This is not just a story of survival-it's a reckoning. A meditation on the past, the love we try to hold onto, and the identities we rewrite when no one is watching.It's about looking back. It's about moving forward.And it's about learning to smile, even when you don't know why.
Autorenporträt
Christian Gonzales is a poet, storyteller, and filmmaker whose work explores the intersections of identity, transformation, and the relentless passage of time. His writing blends lyrical introspection with raw existentialism, often blurring the line between the personal and the universal.Born from a love of language and the need to make sense of chaos, Christian's poetry confronts themes of memory, resilience, and self-reinvention. His debut collection, Smiley, captured the intensity of youth, trauma, and survival, while his forthcoming book, The Sword and the Pen, dives deeper into the fight between destruction and creation-both in art and in life.Beyond poetry, Christian is also a director and producer, bringing his storytelling to the screen with the same depth and emotional weight that defines his written work. Whether on the page or behind the camera, he is committed to crafting narratives that challenge, resonate, and linger long after the final word.He currently lives and writes in Los Angeles, where he continues to push the boundaries of poetry, storytelling, and self-exploration.
