I'm in the middle of reading "House Of Leaves" by Danielewski, and I'm wondering if anyone else has examined this amazing book.
The story is very interesting (it's a book about a guy who finds a book written by a guy about a film about some kind of haunted house.) But it is the packaging that makes this book incredible. Fictitious footnotes, pages of irrelevant text, text that goes in every possible direction, notes that lead you forward and backward, numerous fonts, colors, braille, codes, etc.
Impressive looking book. Very unusual.
