A Place Both Wonderful and Strange

From its initial broadcast in 1990 to the unexpected and hugely acclaimed return of the series some twenty-five years later, Twin Peaks garnered millions of fans across the world - though from the first episode, studio executives had predicted the inevitable failure of the show.

In A Place Both Wonderful and Strange, film and TV critic Scott Meslow takes us behind the (red) curtain of Twin Peaks and into the unique and immersive world created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. Meslow has conducted dozens of original interviews with cast and crew - including Mark Frost, Sherilyn Fenn, James Marshall and Ray Wise - which shed new light on this extraordinary work that often raised as many questions as it answered.

With David Lynch's passing in 2025, there may never be another return to the unforgettable town of Twin Peaks, yet A Place Both Wonderful and Strange draws readers back once again to the inimitable experience of the show and offers fascinating new insights and perspectives.
