I absolutely love this guy's work from his complex horror novel House of Leaves to his stream-of-consciousness poetry road novel Only Revolutions and I just read a piece of his from Black Clock magazine, Clip 4 which was very reminiscent of House of Leaves in which an event was recorded from a perspective where no one had a camera to film. Stuff like that just really intrigues me and often time I try to make my poetry have his kind of introspection.

Anyone else a fan?

I've read House Of Leaves and enjoyed it greatly, but haven't felt compelled to explore further.

You are probably aware that his sister Ann is the singer Poe (of "Trigger Happy Jack" and "Angry Johnny" fame).
BRUTAL.

Yeah, I loved Haunted. It truly is a great companion piece. Shocked

Hey you know we had that special bond when we both started reading House of Leaves (ya like that)at the same time, why do you deny it? Is it because I never got around to finishing? I will I swear :(

He's pretty cool stuff

He is alot to take in though, I was lucky to have a period in my life where reading made me feel better to read HoL.

And Audrey Hepburn is the other girl, Roy.

I think I knew that at the back of my mind, but for some reason I thought it was a more modern clip and I didn't think back that far.

I should put that girl from V and what not and we could have a girl war, the way men used to do, but in a nerdy and slightly creepy facsimile of the real thing. Geek

Then again.... maybe not.

I thought this was relevant, on MZD's facebook he posted pictures of him going to a Roger Waters' The Wall concert. I thought that was kind of cool.
