This book really did something to me. Has anyone else ever heard of it?
I can only say that there are several substorylines surrounding the "main" story which is about a family that moves into a house. Soon after they've began their new life, Navidson discovers that the inside of his new home(or, old) is larger on the inside than on the outside. Sounds physically impossible, right? Right...
It's an incredible book. The most unique novel I've ever had the pleasure of losing myself in. I am fascinated by this piece of art and I plan to read it a few more times front to back.
I have also taken the liberty of placing a link to amazon.com where you can read the first few pages of the book. Those few ellusive pages may discourage you from reading...though, the size of the book may discourage you more. I say, I had attempted to stop reading several times. I almost did at one point, trying to draw my attention away by opening one of the many "to-read" books I have stacked on my nightstand, but I was drawn back to this book again and again until I finally finished it today.
There are portions of this book that described the things I have been troubled by for some time now. The feeling of someone lurking in the shadows behind me...waiting for the right moment to leap out and gut me or tear my throat out or bash me over the head with a blunt object. The darkness that I am lost within trying to find an escape to something. Anything. I was, indeed, frightened by this book.
Anyway, enough of my idiocy...get onto reading:
