"House of Leaves" by Mark Z. Danielewski - Audiobook - Introduction
Ойын-сауық
Test recording of the audiobook of "House of Leaves". I do not own the rights to Mark Z. Danielewski's 'House of Leaves'. There is no monetization on this video and, other than vocals, all credit goes to Mark Z. Danielewski.
This is my first attempt at recording an audiobook. There may be a replacement version down the line. Thank you for baring with me. I hope you enjoy.

I secretly love all the background road noise in this recording. It actually adds to this so much. A much needed white-noise attached to an odd enigma of a complexly odd book in audiobook format.
Look at all these comments. People would loose it if you did just a little more. I've got all sorts of badges and have mastered all the listening times on audible and yet still this speaks to me the recording is fantastic please do more.
please please continue recording this book!! your voice is soo perfect!!
PLEASE PLEASE FINISH! I HAVE ADHD AND THIS IS REALLY HELPING ME FOLLOW ALONG, And you have a wonderful voice 😍😍😍
Please keep this going. Even if it's chapter by chapter it's so good. HoL has been my favorite book for years. I haven't found anything that even remotely gives the same feeling. Your reading is damn near flawless for this book.
Please keep this going. Your voice is so perfect 🥺
This sounds very good. Very professional and even the sounds in the background are great.
Please finish this...

The plans are in motion. I will be getting a new computer to edit my audio on later this month. I am also bringing on extra voice actors to bring to life the sections of "video" reference. In short, I am determined to continue. Thanks for your support!

@@seaspenders I’d literally pay you to finish this.
excellent- thank you! looking forward to more.
The slow shift on the visual is a heck of a thing for this particular intro. Geez. As a slow reader, I would love to experience this book in audio form. Amazing work!
Thank you for this. It’s one of my favorite books, too-and you read it beautifully.
Thank you for giving me a voice to hear as a whisper as I read Johnny's contributions to the book. I'm beginning it this evening.
Subscribing in case you decide to revisit this at some point. This book is one of my favorites, and seeing how you tackle the sheer challenge that is the...Formatting? Page layout? And occasionally incomprehensible scribbles? It'll certainly be worth while. And it certainly helps that you have a wonderful reading voice. Thank you.

Thank you very much! I just finished moving to a new place and set up my recording equipment. I'm just waiting on a replacement recording absorbing panel that got damaged in the move. It is definitely going to be a challenge but I'm going to try my best.
Wow - Please keep it going!!!
This is a fantastic reading! Please do more!
I really enjoyed this reading. I do wish you went on, but it's a big project. Thank you for what you've done. I've tried myself, but ... you've done better.
You have a wonderful voice
This is really amazing. If you ever have the time or desire to do so, I would happily buy a full audiobook from you for any amount of money, as I have been unable to finish this book on my own since the visual clutter is hard for me to follow, and I've been unable to find a proper audiobook for sale elsewhere. Your narration and voicing is really great.
They way you convey the narrator's emotional state makes me feel like im reading it wrong. Lol. Would really like more of these videos.
You are the king. An absolute king. We will sing your praises forever. Thank you. And master, in your mercy, please let us have some more...
Please continue this if you can, this is the best quality audiobook of this masterpiece I can find anywhere
Damn it, man!! This is so good! Please update! You're the only one who can do it justice.
Do more ! This was awesome ! Can't wait to hear what happens next :)
Thanks for recording, very good voice work.
Love this! Most awesome voice!!
*I’m waiting for new content! This is treasure!*
I’ve replayed this 5 times, I’m afraid to start the first chapter.

This made me go out and buy the book. I can see why you havent finished this. This book is all over the place and about 20% of it is meant to be skipped but the parts you skip are there to be seen. It's hard to explain without seeing the pages.
More please! Your narration is stellar 🎉
I would fight anyone in a parking lot who said they had a better sense of pacing and tone for this eerie little book. 👍
please continue! im dyslexic and really wanted to enjoy this book, your voice is great for this book!
I am going to need you to continue please!
I need mooore, you're breaking my heart, your narration is sooo goood 😭
Your voice 🥺♥️ Please continue this.
Wish you completed this man. You did an exceptional job!
THANK you so much!!!!!!! Please continue to do all the great readings!! Can't wait to hear the rest!!
This is incredible! I will definitely listen if you make more.
I haven’t started this book yet, getting the book thisweekend but I want to listen because LOVE hearing you read. Your voice and how you present the words are so perfect .
Please continue we love your voice
What a beautiful reading, love this book. You are very talented. Know it is a Labyrinth of a book but would have loved to hear more. Thank you for the reading though.
Come back and finish this. Everyone's obsessed with the story rn

What! This doesn't keep going?? This guy did an amazing job at this introduction. Can amyone recommend a full version?
Please please please keep going with this 🙏 I have the physical copy of this book.... but I struggle with the words swimming sometimes. Having a full audio copy of this book would be a godsend 💕
Very good reading, keep up the great work
DUDE. We need more please!
Please continue this video series for the whole book!
Really excellent reading and I agree the ambience adds a lot
I would be truly impressed with anyone who was able to translate this book into an audiobook. How would one even do it??

Thank you for this. I've heard there is no official audiobook and the author didn't want one. I'm blind so can't read the print book.
There used to be a full audiobook recorded independently for this book on KZread but it seems like they deleted it. It was the perfect audio book for this book. Does anyone have any back up of it? It was read rather slow so you needed to increase the speed to have a normal audio book experience, but the slow reading also helped with comprehension.

Wow translating this into an audiobook must be so daunting😳
Incredible
So good. It would be fabulous if you continued.
I don't know how the he'll you can do this book and give justice to its crazy formatting. The Infinite Jest auduobook didn't even try to handle the novel's extensive footnotes which are integral. In any case, good luck!
Why did you stop?! This is so good
I hope you revisit this project! Your voice just brings life to this book- great job! I’m now subscribed!😊👍
I personally am not a fan of audio books...however...i was absolutely absorbed in your recording. Please finish this project!!!
You sound amazing. i would love to hear your idea on how to express all that's going on in an audio form
I wish you the best of luck in this monumental endeavor, if you pull it off I bet Danielewski would even take notice.

Any updates on the audiobook for HOL? Looking forward to the next recording. Cheers!
Loved this! Update? Are you planning on recording more chapters?
This book mysteriously appeared on my door step...
I think most "HoL" fans would highly recommend you get a physical copy, because there's formatting and text/graphical stuff going on that simply CANNOT translate to an audiobook. If you don't get a physical copy, you are definitely missing out on some really great stuff. That being said, I suppose it's nice for fans who've already read it.

Hello Rj, I have not given up on this project. I do recognize that it has been quite a long time since I posted the introduction. The audio work is in progress for the full book but it is a personal project. In so being, other projects had taken precedent since last I posted. I will be continuing this project and will give proper updates soon. I appreciate your patience and look forward to providing a full audiobook for all of you.
