Tearjerk follows Emeric Miles-a grief-addicted voyeur from Ventura with an arousal disorder centered around crying. Told through fragmented journal entries, emotional breakdowns, and nihilistic giggles, this transgressive story explores taboo tendencies, self-destruction, and the beauty of falling apart. Emeric works at a suicide hotline-not to save lives, but to listen to people sob. He crashes funerals, joins support groups. Anywhere tears fall, he follows and consumes sorrow.
As empathy blurs into exploitation, and trauma becomes obsession, Tearjerk is what happens when pain feels dangerously good-and when you don't care if anyone flinches.
For fans of Chuck Palahniuk, Sylvia Plath, and anyone who's ever cried in a gas station bathroom, Tearjerk is a coming-of-undone story that speaks to the broken, the bitter, and the barely-holding-on.
This is not your typical mental health book.
