Vincent Spinetti is the archetypal tortured artist — a sensitive young writer who suffers from alienation, parental neglect, poverty, depression, alcoholism, illness, nervous breakdowns, and unrequited love. However, he is unaware that these torments are due to the secret manipulations of 'New Renaissance', an experimental organization that hopes to improve mindless main-stream culture by raising writers who emphasize artistic quality over commerce. New Renaissance hires ex-musician Harlan Eiffler to manipulate its most promising prodigy, Vincent. Wickedly antisocial and disgusted by what passes for entertainment in the twenty-first century, Harlan ensures that Vincent remains a true artist. He poses as Vincents manager and nurtures his career, all the while continuing to torture him. Smart, funny, and poignant, 'Torture the Artist' examines the timeless idea that true art can only result from suffering.
