Unspace, the raw shark texts, and ergodic literature

Just read this great substack (from it’s only dark) about The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall, a book I haven’t heard of but which plays with liminal spaces and [[ surreal ]] imagery. Has the vibe of [[ House of Leaves ]]. Both are examples of ergodic literature.

The substack talks about how there are unchapters associated with the book, negatives of the chapters that the book contains that add to the story and which have evaded a lot of people searching for ‘em.

Sounds like I need [[ to read ]] this book.
