The Book of Cults Vol. 1 | Pop Culture Poison
A satirical, nonfiction breakdown of how pop culture became behavioral conditioning. 20 "cults" of modern media—deconstructed and unfiltered.
A Subversive, Zine-Style Nonfiction Series for Indie Shelves
Nonfiction Manifestos Disguised as Nostalgia
The Anti-Cult Collection is a line of retro zine-style books for indie bookstores and outsider shops — each one a nonfiction manifesto disguised as nostalgia.
For shelves that reject the ordinary and retailers who want stock that gets picked up, not just shelved.
These aren’t just books — they’re statement pieces.
What Makes Them Different:
Each title in The Anti-Cult Collection is a subversive manifesto styled as a piece of retro culture — cassettes, mixtapes, or the artifacts you hid under your bed in the ‘90s. Chapters are “tracks,” covers are conversation pieces, and the whole series doubles as nostalgia bait for the clarity-starved.
