Let's talk about this great novel and share the treasures we found in that fucking terrifying house.
Some brilliant essays on House of Leaves:
Conor Dawson's "Infernal Phenomenal Reference and Traumas in HoL" is a great exploration of the hell trope in the novel, with references to psychoanalysis and classic literature. It's on the Taylor & Francis website, which means (I think) that you need to be a college kid to access it:

Also on T&F, Natalie Hamilton's "A-Mazing House" explores the trope of the labyrinth as a psychological representation and as an actual place in HoL:

Katherine Hayles' "Saving the Subject" discusses HoL as halfway between reader-friendly, representational fiction, and experimental/messed-up lit:

Finally, an essay on good ol' JSTOR, which I'm relatively sure all of you can read: Mark Hansen's "Digital Topography of HoL," where HoL's format and typographical quirks are addressed and explored:
