About the Pulp Fiction Collection Our modern popular culture would not exist in its current form without the enormous influence of pulp fiction. So named due to the cheap wood-pulp paper used in the printing process, pulp magazines brought affordable fiction options to the masses. This collection attempts to create a modernized version of these magazines, taking the short stories from each public domain issue and assembling them in a more modern collection format.
