We all know the cure-yet we keep choosing the disease. In We Knew the Cure, But Loved the Disease: How We Worship What Wounds Us, Davis Shyaka Musirikare delivers a haunting, philosophical novel that dissects humanity's most seductive paradox: our obsession with the very things that destroy us.

We all know the cure-yet we keep choosing the disease. In We Knew the Cure, But Loved the Disease: How We Worship What Wounds Us, Davis Shyaka Musirikare delivers a haunting, philosophical novel that dissects humanity's most seductive paradox: our obsession with the very things that destroy us. Told through the interwoven lives of a brilliant doctor who smokes between surgeries, a celebrated poet addicted to her own image, and a preacher whose faith feeds his pride, this book exposes the quiet addiction beneath every virtue. Each character knows the truth, teaches the truth-and still cannot live it. The result is a hypnotic descent into the beauty of decay, where pleasure masquerades as healing and self-destruction feels like love. Blending psychological realism, lyrical prose, and moral tension, We Knew the Cure invites readers to confront the terrifying comfort of their own contradictions. It is not merely a story about addiction-it is about knowledge, hypocrisy, desire, and the dangerous relief of surrendering to what hurts. For readers of The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Secret History, and The Road Less Traveled, this is a modern confessional of the soul-a mirror held up to every mind that has ever known the right path and still chosen the wrong one. Because sometimes, the disease is simply too beautiful to let go.
Davis Shyaka Musirikare is an unbounded storyteller - a voice that moves freely across genres, ideas, and emotions. His writing defies limitation, blending philosophy, imagination, and realism into experiences that challenge how we see the world and ourselves. Whether exploring the depths of human thought, the beauty of fiction, the strategy of power, or the science of existence, Davis writes with one purpose - to awaken the reader's mind and spirit. His stories are not confined by style or subject; they are driven by curiosity, truth, and the endless search for meaning. Known for his cinematic tone and reflective intensity, he transforms everyday questions into timeless explorations of life. Every book he writes invites readers to think, feel, and rediscover what it means to be alive. His words live beyond category - where wisdom meets wonder, and where storytelling becomes philosophy.
