House of Leaves
Danielewski's experimental horror novel tells the story of a house larger inside than outside through layers of footnotes, appendices, and typographical experimentation. The work explores space, perception, fear, and the nature of narrative itself. Its unconventional structure creates a disorienting reading experience that mirrors the characters' psychological states.
