The elderly librarian Señor José chooses Maximo, a young pharmacist with a disfigured face, as his student and heir to entrust him with the Encyclopedia of Medicine. It contains all the manifestations of vices, moral defects and simply human suffering: from an illness that gives patients an unsurpassed power of memory to the detriment of all other abilities of the mind, to contagious melancholy and continuous pregnancy. As Maximo soon discovers, there may be more to medicine than he thought. Vices and Obsessions is a haunting look at the diseases of the flesh and soul, compiled by a modern scientist and author of Night Theater.
