Televised news reports invade the temple walls and Amy hears a new word that suddenly explains everything: cult.Now, she must risk everything to indulge in secret trips to an abandoned off-limits library to learn what she was never meant to know: that Gandhi was not a space alien, that Star Trek wasn’t real, that her community was built on a lie, and most importantly, that banned books can give her everything she needs to escape.Occulted is a shocking graphic memoir about the power of literary freedom.
