House of leaves mark z6/3/2023 ![]() ![]() Zamano is determined to be a blind man living in a house alone, and the film for which the manuscript was made does not exist, and likely will never ever exist. ![]() ![]() The next "layer" of the novel is determined through the writing of Zampano read by Johnny. He now starts to become obsessed with the real-life artifacts from the manuscript, meeting people and touring houses from it. He travels to Virginia to visit the Ash Tree Lane House that he read about in the manuscript. With his mental and physical health deteriorating, Johnny gets fired from the Tattoo parlor. Over time, he becomes more and more obsessed with it, and life becomes a blur between fact and fiction. The man's name was Zampano, and Johnny begins reading the manuscript. One day, Truant and his friend find a piece of literature title The Navidson Record in the room of a man that recently passed away. He is the stereotypical dirty-type inner-city person - he uses drugs, has affairs with women, and only appears to care about himself. The first level of narration follows the story of Johnny Truant, the employee of a tattoo shop living in Hollywood. House of Leavesis an interesting novel in that it has multiple layers of narration - that is, while the reader is reading one thing, the character that the reader is reading about is also reading something, which the reader then learns about. ![]() Written by people who wish to remain anonymous We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own.
