Sam Lake is one of the creative powerhouses behind the eclectic masterpieces released by Remedy. If you’re trying to make sense of the Finnish artist’s incredible imagination, it would be a great idea to start by having a look at his recommended reading list, which he has recently shared.
A friend asked for book recommendations some time ago, and I quickly went through my bookshelf. Here’s some. https://t.co/QwypIFyfIb pic.twitter.com/FHDNcSmb31
Lake reveals that these were the books he grabbed off his bookshelf when a friend asked for recommendations. In case you’re having trouble seeing all the books, here’s the list:
There are also a few books by a personal favorite of mine, Paul Auster:
This is far from the first time we’ve gotten a glimpse at Lake’s reading list. In past interviews, he has spoken at length about the books that have inspired him and influenced his current creative style. A Tweet from Remedy Entertainment revealed the books on Lake’s desk, and plenty of them are video game adaptations.
@SamLakeRMD's desk sure has a lot of interesting things on it! Have you read any of these books?

Alan Wake 2 director says Remedy's confidence in the game was boosted by Everything Everywhere All At Once
Alan Wake 2 certainly isn't afraid to be weird, whether it's letting you change the layout of a level at the press of a button, or suddenly turning into a full-blown musical. Making a game so wilfully out there must be a nerve-wracking experience, however, as you've got no idea whether your kooky ideas are going to land with the audience. Yet according to Alan Wake 2's creative director Sam Lake, Remedy's belief in the game was boosted during development by a film that is equally weird and brilliant.
