House of Leaves

The first full-color edition. A horror novel about a rapidly expanding house; a story about the power of love; a satire on pseudoscientific speculation; a fundamental study of a film that does not exist, made by a blind old man;... notes from the labyrinths of the subconscious; a sentimental wandering through the infernal circles of life — all this in infinite intertwining creates the unified plot of "House of Leaves." 
Any hopes or concerns that experimental novels are a relic of the 20th century were shattered in an instant with the appearance of the first major experimental novel of the new millennium, House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski. And it is a monster. Dazzling. The Washington Post Book World: This demonically brilliant book cannot be ignored, put down, or stopped from being read. In fact, by purchasing your own copy, you might find me on one of its pages - diminished in size, like Vincent Price caught in the web of these clever, beautiful pages. Jonathan Lethem, author of Motherless Brooklyn: A masterpiece. Because of it, you'll lose sleep and start to see the abyss in your own closet… Astounding fun. Chicago Sun-Times: Like Melville’s Moby Dick, Joyce’s Ulysses, and Nabokov’s Pale Fire, Danielewski’s House of Leaves is a multilayered ambitious work, confounding in its vast universe, encyclopedic in its knowledge, inventive, and indeed clever in its prose, ultimately. San Diego Union-Tribune: A wild Pynchonian strangeness, Nabokovian linguistic obsession, and Borges-like unreality. House of Leaves leaps and plays with the reader with genre-breaking audacity, postmodern flamboyance, and a devilishly rich imagination, able to shame most works on today’s book market.
