>Danielewski (House of Leaves) is currently in the midst of writing 27 consecutive 880 page books about a twelve-year-old girl named Xanther and some loosely connected characters from across the world
What other writers have seen a modicum of success and then gone batshit insane?
He burned too bright and snapped in less than a decade.
Sebastian Parker
It's very readable
on a train or public place, not so much
Isaac Rivera

Eli Gray
the infinite jest guy killed himself right? does that count?
Parker Turner
I believe Wallace always coped with depression. That's not to say it wasn't exacerbated by his success but his suicide had as much to do with him going off his meds.
Robert Ramirez
killing yourself is the opposite of this
it's the mark of true artistry
Noah Perez
i've been wondering what it takes to be a true artist
universal acclaim here i come
Oliver Martin
i support this hypothesis
writers need to learn the right way to go tastefully mad, it's more becoming that way
Jeremiah Green
or just kill themselves, then they can be true artists
Gabriel Ramirez
this of course but it's better to leave an aesthetic paper trail behind don't you think
Ian Cook
It's called a one hit wonder.
Carter Powell
Can't identify the specific complex but there's a psychotic break within the past 12 years.
I'm not a salinger fan but i want to at least see them get out there
Alexander Baker
t.person who tried to read Jerusalem and failed
Eli Walker
Read all volumes of the familiar and I love it. Not batshit insane at all, it's his 'in search of lost time.' The man just HS an incredible work ethic, and it's definitely his most feelsy work.
Always thought OR was better than HoL, but I think I like this current project better than both of them.
Josiah Ward
What is exactly about, if you could summarise vaguely?
can't really make heads of the wiki summary's and they don't really sell it well (I really enjoyed HoL)
Cameron Bailey
Are there good ebooks of House of Leaves? I heard it does weird typography and shit.
Mason Peterson
i can't imagine it is even remotely readable through that medium
even if it was, it'd have to remove all the gimmicks that the book is known for
Jack Jones
I'd say it'd be nearly unreadable in that format, I'd just buy it physical
Hunter Brown
>(shed)) How close is he to name the (((jew))) in these books? Are they redpilled?
