Description:Is "Twin Peaks" a cult-like phenomenon...or a mystery that needs to be solved…or simply the fever dream of its eccentric co-creator? No other show in the history of television has sparked so many questions and "The Tao of Twin Peaks" proposes answers to those who seek to understand this surreal, multilayered, and metafictional story. Much has been written about "Twin Peaks," but this book is markedly different. It is not just for the most ardent fans who love decoding clues in the series. It also explores the show’s cinematic techniques, its cultural references, and its mythological, psychological, and religious influences. Just some of the topics explored:- The significance of the Red Room- Laura Palmer as both angel and centerfold- The answer to "Who is Judy?"- The connection between Agent Cooper and Mr. C- The relationship of the plot to electricity and the atomic bomb- "Twin Peaks" as a working philosophy- "What year is this?" Making sense of the end of the seriesIn Taoism, the goal is to achieve balance in our ever-changing reality. "The Tao of Twin Peaks" illustrates how David Lynch accomplishes this feat in this classic show. It examines the entire "Twin Peaks" canon, including "Fire Walk with Me," with a particular focus on "Twin Peaks: The Return." For filmmaker and author, William Dickerson, the search for significance in "Twin Peaks" is analogous to the search for meaning in both his and his readers’ lives. As strange as the characters and plots may be, they echo our own traumas, growth, and experience. Featuring artwork by Gilbert Leiker, "The Tao of Twin Peaks" will set you on the road to solving the show's enigmas and, as a result, deepen your appreciation of future viewings along the way. Uncover the details of David Lynch's cinematic craft as he creates the off-kilter world of "Twin Peaks" and turns the mirror on us.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
