Shout at the Devil and Curse at the Lord: A Journey Through Chronic Pain Paperback – January 29, 2025

"A brutally honest, darkly hilarious memoir of one man’s battle with chronic pain—and the medical system that failed him.Ben Evans was a fitness-obsessed, high-performing father and husband—until one day, an Epsom salt bath triggered the most excruciating pain of his life… in the most unmentionable place imaginable.Shout at the Devil and Curse at the Lord is not your typical memoir. Raw, profane, and unfiltered, this is a visceral journey through medical misdiagnoses, invasive procedures, shattered masculinity, and soul-crushing frustration. It’s a story of chronic pain—physical, mental, and emotional—told with the irreverent humor of someone who’s survived hell and lived to joke about it.Whether he’s describing a cystoscopy with nightmarish detail or unpacking the emotional fallout of being constantly gaslit by healthcare “professionals,” Evans offers a gut-punching account that is equal parts outrageous and relatable. At its core, this book is about resilience, truth-telling, and finding light in the darkest corners of the human experience.Warning: This book contains adult language, graphic content, and a relentless refusal to sugarcoat reality. If you're easily offended, this may not be for you. But if you’ve ever suffered through chronic pain—or supported someone who has—this is the voice you didn’t know you needed. Read more
