House Of Leaves prizewinning terrifying cult classic that will turn everything you

Neither for the faint of heart nor the weak of mind this “book” may be an exceptional tour de force but if you dare to get involved with it you will be rewarded beyond compare. But while finding your way into the House is fairly challenging it doesn’t compare to the real challenge that comes afterward - which is leaving the House. But what is it, this House of Leaves you ask? It’s a documentary about the 5-and-a-half-minute hallway, an impossible space within an ordinary house. A biopic about a filmmaker and his family who discover said house. A comprehensive analysis of said documentary by a blind eccentric. A story about a guy who finds said analysis and whose life slowly goes awry whilst commenting said analysis. And of course a book about all of that, including editorial notices. It is all those storylines intertwining at once; a puzzle box of a book, layers within layers of secrets, an abyss to fall down into, dread slowly creeping up in the corner of your eye and then vanishing again into the safe space of rational documentation. It is a book where footnotes have footnotes and those footnotes may even be found a few pages prior to said footnote. It is book which uses space, font and layout and its appendices to its advantage, to disorientate, to help immersion, to TRAP you, enrapture you until you get lost in the minotaurs (there is NO minotaur) labyrinth. It is a book that keeps on giving, that can be reread again and again; you’ll always find something new, a connection that you didn’t see before (or maybe it simply wasn’t there before?). It will follow you for a long time (maybe forever?) and you will unconsciously be on the lookout for subtle impossibilities in geometry - until one day the hallway appears in your house, your house becomes the House. Will you enter?
