What do you guys think of a novel that has the same elements of the twin peaks: A comfy setting with a dark undertone, a large array of sincere characters with interesting philosophies and surreal shit that gets tied in with mythology/the character's psyches. Is there already such a thing, does it sound too reddit?
Sounds a good. Hamlet reminds me of your description.

Why do I read every Shakespeare play as a comedy? I didn't get dark undertone at all until I read other people's opinions on it and then it made so much sense. Probably because I read Twelfth Night first, right?

May have to do with the language used by the characters and not paying enough attention on the theme of the story.

You're not describing twin peaks that well. All I got from it was project that outstayed it's running time because of it's popularity and completely lost it's plot subsequently. If you want something similair, think serial novel's. Bad Dickens for instance.
nah

That's probably it. I also assume I'm just too jovial on general
>>9360272
Haha in that case you may be better off not reading books with dark undertones and focusing on other settings.

Have you watched fire walk with me, I guess that's more what I'm going for here.

Cheers anon, this makes me want to read it even more than I already do, I'll get started soon.
>>9360302
Thanks anon :~) have a good day
Is there anything a bit more maximal than hamlet somebody can recommend me?
>>9360182
Infinite Jest pretty much. DFW was a big Lynch fan too.
>>9360377
Yeah I read his essay on lynch, haven't read infinite heart yet but it'll happen eventually.
>>9360385

>>9360322
Good luck!
>>9360385
Read the jest then, it's pretty much what you're looking for in a book
