05.30.16 A while back, a podcast that I listen to did a Twin Peaks Rewatch. That, coupled with the news that there would be new episodes coming in the next year or two, led me to want to give the series another viewing. I still haven't re-watched the show but the podcast mentioned this book. I'm a big fan of oral histories so I thought this would be good.

And it is. Pretty much everyone (exceptions are Lara Flynn Boyle, David Duchovny, Heather Graham, and most notably David Lynch) is interviewed and gives candid opinions with the benefit of hindsight. The narrative goes from inception through the movie (although the movie is given barely a mention) and lots of details are given of behind the scenes goings-ons. Some people were more guarded than others regarding the drama and tensions but pretty much anything that isn't said outright can be inferred.

This book gave me pretty much exactly what I wanted, which is great.
