The Physics of Creepiness (A Review of Mark Danielewski’s House of Leaves)

Here I have a good opportunity for to use Cannibal Holocaust as a literary reference. Danielewski’s eight-year-old experimental opus, House of Leaves, can be at times as daunting a read as his last name is to type out.
Published in 2000 (here and now we get a “remastered full-colored edition”), House of Leaves concerns a family [...]

On War
