Book description
When Gabriel Smith's voice cracks through your headphones, you're already knee-deep in the mess. This isn't a gentle grief story-it's a brat's tantrum thrown against the walls of his dead father's house, and the audiobook makes every sardonic sigh, every choked laugh, feel like it's happening inside your own skull. You're not just reading about Gabriel's skin peeling in grotesque sheets; you hear the dry, papery shush in the quiet moments, the way his voice tightens when he admits he can't finish his book, can't even handle the smell of his parents' old coffee.
The house itself becomes a character in the audio, its creaks and groans layered beneath Gabriel's monologue. You lean in as he discovers his parents' mutating manuscripts-each time he picks them up, the words shift, and the narrator's voice subtly alters, like the text is breathing. It's unnerving, brilliant. And the home video? You hear the static crackle, the muffled voices of people who might not even be real, and suddenly you're not sure if you're hearing Gabriel's hallucinations or the house whispering back.
Smith's genius is in the voice. This isn't a polished, distant narrator. It's a Gen Z voice-dry, self-aware, laced with humor that cuts like a knife. When Gabriel calls himself "a brat" while literally shedding his skin, you hear the exhaustion beneath the sarcasm. The audiobook leans into that rawness: the pauses where he almost cries, the way his tone drops when he talks about his brother's disappointment, the sheer relief when he finally says, "I'm not a ghost."
You might expect gothic horror, but Smith delivers something sharper: grief as a physical thing, as something you can almost taste in the audio's silence. The prose is tight, lyrical, and utterly unpretentious. A line like "The house was breathing me out" lands harder in your ear than on the page. And the humor? It's the kind that makes you snort into your headphones while simultaneously feeling a lump in your throat.
This isn't just a debut-it's a signal. Smith writes like he's been listening to the internet's frantic heartbeat, turning its rhythm into something intimate, unsettling, and devastatingly funny. The audiobook version? It's the only way to hear Gabriel's voice really-the way he's both haunted and haunting, the way he refuses to be a saint or a victim. You'll find yourself hitting pause, just to remember how to breathe. By the end, you're not just hearing a story about loss. You're hearing your own. And it's not a ghost story at all. It's a lifeline.
