Called “a children’s book that permanently lodged itself in David’s mind”, Good Times on Our Street clearly influenced works like Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks, as well as Lynch’s general approach to ‘the art life’. Indigo and Hilary discuss the tangible resonances of the imagery, themes, and dual purposes of this American basal reader in David Lynch’s world.

Truman Capote's In Cold Blood and Twin Peaks share some uncanny resonances. Indigo and Hilary discuss these, as well as how both texts reflect shifts in American culture since the 1960s.

Discussing the 1974 novel by Laird Koenig and 1976 film it inspired, Indigo and Hilary explore thematic connections between these texts and Twin Peaks. "Is it the story of the little girl who lived down the lane? Is it?" Yes, Audrey, we think it is.

Stanley Kubrick's film Lolita has discernible fingerprints on Twin Peaks, Eraserhead, and other films by David Lynch. Indigo and Hilary discuss these, as well as the parallels between Laura Palmer and Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita.
