Shadowing an elderly librarian on his first day at the great Central Library, M ximo is thrilled to get a peek at the exclusive Encyclopedia of Medicine.
It's a dizzying collection of maladies: an amnesia that causes everyone you've ever met to forget you exist, while you remain perfectly, painfully aware of your history.
A wound that grows with each dark thought or evil deed you commit but shrinks with every act of kindness.
A disease that causes your body to imitate death, stopping your heart, cooling your blood.
Will the fit pass before they bury you-or after? As M ximo soon discovers, medicine at the Central Library may be more than he bargained for.
The Afflictions is a magical compendium of pseudo-diseases, an encyclopedia of archaic medicine written by a contemporary physician and scientist.
Little by little, these bizarre and mystical afflictions frame an eternal struggle: between human desire and the limits of bodily existence.
