Truth Beneath the Skin is my attempt to capture a life lived in stories. No great literature, no self-therapy – simply memories that at some point became urgent enough to be written down. Some are light, some are heavy, most are somewhere in between.
Why Truth Beneath the Skin? Because the things that truly shape us rarely lie on the surface.
Welcome.
Martin Christen is a pen name. The person behind it deliberately stays in the background – the stories should speak for themselves, not the author. All names of people and some place names in these stories have been changed to protect the privacy of those involved. Only the author writes about himself, under his pen name Martin Christen.
