"Sure, I'll Join Your Cult: A Memoir of Mental Illness and the Quest to Belong Anywhere" by Maria Bamford is a candid and humorous exploration of the author's lifelong struggle to find her place in the world. From battling an eating disorder in the 1980s to navigating a career in the arts while dealing with medical debt and psychiatric institutionalization, Bamford has tried various methods to fit in and connect with others. In her unique comedic style, she recounts her experiences in numerous anonymous fellowships, including Debtors Anonymous and Overeaters Anonymous, as well as her hypomanic episodes related to issues like capitalism and workplace health. Through her singular voice, Bamford's memoir delves into the challenges of being a part of society despite not excelling at it, with the aim of turning isolating experiences into relatable comedy without forming a cult following.
