The GOD of Small Sufferings

De: John Anthony Davis

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Some sorrows are too perfect to be random.

In the archives of human misery, Arthur Vale is an unwilling expert. By day, he files the paperwork of the damned. By night, he maps the city’s sorrows, tracing the invisible geography of despair. He believes he’s documenting accidents of fate.

He’s documenting a collection.

A clandestine department recruits him to hunt a phantom called the Curator—a being who seeks not to cause pain, but to find it at its most crystalline, beautiful peak, and claim it as his own. Each of his “exhibits” is a soul brought to a moment of flawless, hopeless clarity.

With a siren whose song breaks minds as his only ally, Arthur must use his They don't want your life. They want the moment you give it up.

Arthur Vale’s only purpose is to file away the city’s tragedies. But his secret project—a map charting the precise locations of human despair—has drawn the attention of two terrifying forces.

One is a secret government agency that battles unnatural phenomena. The other is the Curator, an entity who cultivates human suffering like a rare flower, waiting to harvest it at the perfect, terrible moment of surrender.

Drafted into a war he never knew existed, Arthur discovers his map is a blueprint for a coming atrocity. To stop it, he must descend into a nightmare world where grief is a weapon, silence is a contagion, and his own tormented soul is the prize in a battle between collectors of anguish.

If you think bureaucracy is hell, wait until you see what they file in the basement.

A relentless supernatural thriller perfect for fans of John Dies at the End and Hannibal.
