Mark Z. Danielewski
Mark Z. Danielewski is an American author whose debut novel House of Leaves is one of the most formally experimental horror novels ever written, using multiple competing narratives and typographic play to simulate the experience of spatial and psychological disorientation. Only Revolutions is similarly ambitious. His work blurs the boundary between literary fiction and horror.
