Recorded on Leap Day (which synchronistically was the author's original ideal pub. date in 2000), The 42 Minutes Seasonal Book Club explores a house larger on the inside than on the outside, a House of Livres. Published in a full color edition by Pantheon in March of 2000, House Of Leaves was Mark Danielewski's first novel, written as an academic treatise by a blind shut in on a sensational documentary film, the manuscript of which, was later discovered and compiled and with notes by a young delinquent name Johnny Truant.
