i don't think i ever mentioned this book, house of leaves, by a mark z danielewski, presents us with a maze of a novel, possibly one of the best ever written as far as i am concerned, it's the equivalent of moby dick in terms of literary weight, yet it's unconventional and confronting. a complex novel that expresses itself in the most non conventional typeset, layout and narrative.
each narrator of the book has their own style but as we reach further into the depths we uncover a horror novel that is articulate and existentialist. this book is a vast undertaking, reading it requires dedication and a certain amount of detective skills, for some of the most shocking aspects of the story are in a code that you can work out, if your creative enough. other parts of the novel are grungy and hard edged, and then there's the nucleus, the book within the book within the book within, 'the navidson record.'
for here we learn of the documentary film maker who moves his family into a new home only to discover a strange anomaly in one of the rooms. 
then there's the analysis of the record by investigators, and here we begin an innovative structural esher painting as the very reading of the book starts to edge its way into your own perceptions. trust me, this book is brilliant, get a copy, they float around in second hand shops and a lot of people give up on it far to early, read the book, don't peek ahead, just saviour this one, page by innovative page. it's the book i wish i had written.
