Cult Rapture: Revelations of the Apocalyptic Mind
The editor ofApocalypse Culturereturns with another collection of anti-essays of his own authorship, plus a few from his disgruntled friends.  Not even sacrilege is sacred to Adam Parfrey as he aims his poison pen at targets ranging fromAndrea DworkintoG.G. Allin. Articles on the sex lives of freaks, amputees, and Nazis are sure to offend someone you know, and they're oddly compelling reading as well. In fact, there's not a clunker in this volume of politically astute if overly nasty pieces. Not to be missed are the interesting series of articles on the militia movement and the Oklahoma City bombing, which defy easy categorization on the standard political chart by attacking the media's biases as well as the narrowness of the militia movements.Cult Raptureis fine reading for a cozy night around a post-nuclear hell pit.
