House of Leaves is something I've been wanting to read since I first saw it, but I've never had the chance. Unlike most books, I feel that I'd be missing out on a lot if I didn't read it in physical form.
Emacs, too, is bigger on the inside.
- eyeundersand 1y agoYes, it's definitely something you want to experience in the physical form! It's hard to describe what reading it feels like towards the latter parts of the book- you feel like you're lost in the book like how the Navidson gets lost in the house.
- kragen 1y agoSee, I feel like that in Emacs sometimes, too. The debugger helps.
- DonHopkins 1y agoI keep track of my Emacs with a Tractive GPS collar, and I have an app on my phone that shows the trails and a heat map of everywhere he's been. And I debug him with Frontline, but that doesn't prevent him from coming in with slugs in his fur. (Emacs is my cat's name.)
