As I have remarked of a previous read purporting to analyse the films of David Lynch, this is not an easy topic to take on. John Alexander does a far better job than the other author in that, this is an eminently readable book that raises several thought provoking aspects of Mr Lynch's work.

The opus is laid out in a sensible fashion; it begins with an overview of the film-maker and goes on to individual chapters for each film. Having read this, I shall keep it close and re-read the relevant chapter before watching/re-watching subsequent films. ( )
