just putting House of Leaves on display, with no concern for what might happen, smh

Notice how its the only copy? All the others on that table have small stacks. It's like someone got it off the shelves deeper into the shop and then their nerve failed them.

Not a big book reader so can you explain?

[-] You_are_dust@lemm.ee 27 points 3 weeks ago

Not the OP but I have read the book. It's very unique and the story is told in some pretty strange ways. Parts are written backwards, in code, in the margin of the pages, etc. I think it's a great experience and I'm glad to see it on that table. I've never read anything else like it.

Welp guess I might make an exception then lol

If you enjoyed the book, check out the album Haunted by Poe. Anyone with a functioning radio in the 90s may have heard Angry Johnny a time or ten but she's got some other good tracks too. Poe is the stage name of Anne Danielewski and, if the last name is familiar, that's because she's the House of Leaves author's sister.
