Redwood Mystery
In the French version of *House of the leaves*, there is one of the very few English words from the book that appears twice : "Redwood" highlighted there in green
Page 342 : it appears alone at the top of the page. It is not the end of a sentence, it is simply inserted in the middle of the text with a footnote (299) referring us to Appendix B
Page 553 (Appendix B) : The word appears once again in isolation, without context, outside of any sentence, in the middle of a typewritten text where it seemingly makes no sens
Does the word "Redwood" appear elsewhere in your English versions ? Do you have any theories about this odd word slipped into a text where it doesn't belong ?
