scrubjayspeaks: Town sign for (fictional) Lake Lewisia, showing icons of mountains and a lake with the letter L (Lake Lewisia)
Title: Propheteering

Author: Cerny, Annushka

Publication Year: 1997

Part tell-all, part how-to, this tells the story of infamous soothsayer-for-hire Annushka Cerny and her rise and fall as a media darling and king-maker when most considered the occult craze long since passé. Naturally inclined to didacticism (some might say domineering nosiness), Cerny can't seem to help but lay out a blueprint for replicating her particular blend of leadership, mysticism, and relentless fundraising, while theoretically telling the story of her life. Reviewers all note the unsettling use of second-person narration throughout and weirdly specific, yet accurate, assumptions made about her audience.
