«El artista torturado» is the contemporary fiction novel by Joey Goebel, published by MR Ediciones in paperback (376 pages, in Spanish).
The narrator is Harlan Eiffler, a manager in the service of a secret organization dedicated to creating geniuses through psychological torture. His task is to destroy the life of Vincent Spinetti, a young screenwriter and composer: getting his girlfriends to leave him, his mother to hate him, and his health to deteriorate. The novel ironizes the theory that true art can only be born from suffering.
The book belongs to the MR Narrativa collection; it is the Spanish translation of «Torture the Artist», originally published in 2004, translated by Isaac Rosa.
For readers seeking an ironic satire with black humor about the mechanisms of creation and the price of talent.
