El buscador de metales

This book declares itself in rebellion from the outset, rebelling against unconscious, conformist living, against social rules and conventions, and also against sadness. Too often, literature succumbs to bitterness, to the inner darkness of its creators. This book flees toward vitalism, toward the thirst for life ("To fill my life with you / immeasurable life / that's what I want"), precisely in a historical moment that seems intent on denying it to us. The Metal Seeker is a critical call to reinvent ourselves, an invitation to reclaim the life they want to steal from us. The Metal Seeker is a visceral, energetic, and direct collection of poems, in which desire intersects with social critique, generational angst, broken hearts, and the life force. The poetic voice is multifaceted: nostalgic, fiery, autofictional, urban, and heartfelt. The narrative rhythm, the nods to the graphic novel, and the formal hybridization make it an essential read for today's readers.
