John Jeremiah Sullivan All Books Editorial Review
John Jeremiah Sullivan's Pulphead is a collection of eclectic essays that captivate the reader and cover a wide range of subjects. Sullivan's writing style is engaging and he has the ability to make even seemingly uninteresting topics intriguing. The essays that stand out the most in this collection are the ones about Axl Rose, Michael Jackson, and the Christian rock festival. Sullivan brings to life the characters he encounters and portrays them in a compelling manner. While some essays may not be as memorable as others, overall Pulphead is a well-written and enjoyable read.

“Ubuy Hong Kong is a game-changer. I was looking for a specific American brand that doesn't ship to Asia, and Ubuy had it in stock. The selection of global products is incredible. It saves me the hassle of using freight forwarders or asking friends to bring items over. The process was seamless from checkout to delivery”
