Hollywood Park By Mikel Jollett
Feb 07, 2024 
Hollywood Park by Mikel Jollett is a remarkable memoir that delves into a tumultuous life. Born into one of the country’s most infamous cults, Jollett’s childhood was marked by poverty, addiction, and emotional abuse. Yet, amidst the hardships, his story emerges as one of fierce love and family loyalty. In raw, poetic prose, he recounts growing up in an experimental commune that later transformed into the Church of Synanon—a dangerous cult. Separated from his parents at six months old, he endured years in what was essentially an orphanage.
Escaping Synanon with his mother and older brother, life outside proved equally challenging. Poverty, trauma, and the lure of drugs and alcohol shaped his journey. Despite it all, Jollett’s emergence as a writer and musician reflects resilience and the enduring power of love.
