The Day We Forgot to Smile is a deeply human collection of stories that lingers in the quiet spaces where life actually happens-between grief and grace, love and loss, courage and fear. With lyrical precision and emotional honesty, Anthony Owens captures the tender, often unspoken moments that shape who we become. Set against city streets, family kitchens, hospital rooms, churches, and living rooms heavy with memory, these stories explore the fragile resilience of ordinary people navigating extraordinary emotional weight. A mother teaching her sons dignity through polished shoes before church. A woman writing letters after midnight to make sense of love, betrayal, and survival. A man learning how grief can coexist with hope, how letting go doesn't mean forgetting, and how healing rarely arrives all at once. Owens writes with the authority of lived experience and the gentleness of someone who understands that pain does not need spectacle to be profound. His characters wrestle with broken marriages, complicated parenthood, generational wounds, aging, forgiveness, and the quiet bravery it takes to choose oneself after years of choosing others. These are stories about boundaries learned too late, love offered imperfectly, and the moments when saying no becomes an act of self-respect.
