Acid Nun

ONE WOMAN'S PSYCHEDELIC JOURNEY THROUGH TRAUMA TO ENLIGHTENMENT. A bad trip leads Annie, our earnest heroine, through a journey of suffering and self-discovery.

Caught within the confines of her own mind, Annie struggles against the doubled weight of trauma and despair. In order to crawl her way out, she must grapple with the cruelest parts of her psyche, and make peace with her inner child and suppressed past. Annie argues with her demons and punches her way toward the light, with a little help from her dedicated and loving friends. 

Lushly illustrated with influences from spiritual iconography and psychedelic imagery, Halbert crafts an unflinching yet compassionate story about pain, rage, and the blessings we can give ourselves. 

18+ only. This book deals with trauma, sexual and physical violence, mental health, drugs, and other sensitive subjects.
