Yes, that does sound like it. Thanks for this everyone

Hi everyone - hope you can help with something I am stuck with. A few years ago, a friend told me about a book he was reading that sounded great, but he's moved away and I don't have any contact details for him. I've tried googling all kinds of searches based on the things I remember about it, but no luck, so hoping someone here may have an idea. Ok, so here's what I remember about this book: * It's v long and challenging * It's set in the 60's or 70's when a journalist and his wife move out from the city to a rural community in America to write a novel * When they get there, they buy a perfect white picket house * When the man tries to do some DIY, he measures the bedroom from the outside, and then from the inside, but the inside is bigger than the out * At some point he finds a black hole in the mysterious room, which he investigates and finds himself in an pitch black cavernous chamber underground * He finds a half finished novel, which I think was similar to his, but is so twisted, it's driven the writer crazy, and is incomplete * He gets lost in the chamber, which leads onto another chamber infinitely * There are a lot of references to classic literature, e.g. white rabbit from Alice in Wonderland My memory is awful, so it's a wonder I've remembered that, but shows how much I want to read this, I suppose! Anyway, if anyone has any clue, I'd be really appreciative. Thanks Mark
