Special #8: The Final Dossier

Back to the Double R: A Twin Peaks Rewatch

Book Club is back in session! After the epic inter-temporal wipeout of Part 18, we pick up the pieces and turn to the slender tome known as The Final Dossier, which is the last of our in-Peaks books (though we will be sticking our noses in other books of the Lynch-verse down the road). One Mr. Mark Frost does a deft job of wrapping up various storylines in bows of various tones, both sad and silly, and he fills in a few lingering points of order and chaos. Please open your texts, then, and turn to page infinity. This week: Damon makes his case that much less is much more; Jennifer spins you right ‘round, baby, right ‘round, like a record, baby, right 'round, ‘round ‘round; Colin highlights (and underlines) the show’s deep themes in Margaret’s final reflection; and Jonathan ponders the meanings of questions and answers alike. For the Twist, as with all our bookish episodes, we ask, “Is it canon? And do we care?”
