Show Notes

In the inaugural episode of REmediaL STUDIES, we dive into the twisting pathways of Mark Danielewski's enigmatic debut novel _House of Leaves_ and manage to keep ourselves mostly on track while doing it. This is not for you. Talking points: Introductions and instructions to the audience, death of the author, kitchen mics, setting as character, mind theatres, academic fraud, Jack Dorito, what evil lurks in the hearts (and hallways) of man.
