Kristine Mckenna

"Unistamisruum" on David Lynchi (1946-2025) ja tema lähedase sõbra, intervjueerija ja biograafi Kristine McKenna kahasse kirjutatud kütkestav elulooraamat, mis arvukate meenutuste kaudu avab nüüdisaja ühe mõistatuslikuma kunstniku mõttemaailma. David Lynch pajatab siin oma elust ja loometööst, teekonnast läbi Ameerika erinevate miljööde ja kümnendite, sel teekonnal kohatud sõpradest ning rõõmudest ja vaevadest oma uuenduslike kunstiprojektide elluviimisel. Rahvusvahelise kinokunsti esirinda tõusis David Lynch 1977. aastal oma jahmatavalt originaalse debüütfilmiga "Kustukummipea". Kolm korda kandideeris Lynch parima rezhissööri Oscarile filmidega "Elevantmees", "Sinine samet" ja "Mulholland Drive", võitis Cannes'is kuldse palmioksa filmiga "Metsikud südamed", nakatas 1990. aastal kogu maa "Twin Peaksi" maaniaga ning kehtestas ennast laia ampluaa ja vaheda mõttega kunstnikuna. Meeleolu ja õhustikku aitavad tabada arvukad fotod David Lynchi kollektsioonist, eri teemade juurde juhatab põhjalik indeks. Raamatu sissejuhatuses märgivad autorid: "Kui hakkasime oma koostööga valmis saama, valdas meid mõlemat sama mõte: raamat tundub õhuke ja kraabib vaid hädavaevu kõnealuse loo välispinda. Inimteadvus on niivõrd mõõtmatu, et raamatukaante vahele seda ei mahuta, ning igal kogemusel on liiga palju tahke, et neid kokku lugeda. Püüdsime olla ammendavad, aga see on siiski vaid põgus pilguheit."
