‘David Lynch: His Work, His World’ Arrives September 9th

Without David Lynch, our world will be a much more ordinary place.

As a filmmaker, screenwriter, designer, musician, photographer, visual artist and living avatar of all things uncanny, for more than five decades David Lynch’s influence pervaded every corner of our culture. From the rise of “prestige” television to the ongoing interplay between arthouse and mainstream movies; from the “dreampop” of artists like Lana Del Rey and Beah House to off-kilter video games; from cabaret acts and performance art to TV commercials, online ads, music videos and more amateur short films than most people could watch in a lifetime.

In his new book, DAVID LYNCH: His Work, His World, author Tom Huddleston explores what makes Lynch’s work unmistakably Lynchian – unraveling the inspiration and creative forces behind his surreal, dreamlike cinematic landscapes, the eerie collision of the mundane and the macabre, and his haunting exploration of the darkness simmering beneath everyday life.

Huddleston delves deep into Lynch’s life and career, tracing his journey from a 1950s childhood in Missoula, Montana and his early short films, to his emergence into a singular presence in cinema with films such as Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Dune, Blue Velvet, Wild Heart, Mulholland Drive, and television with Twin Peaks.

Through the decades, Lynch explored film, television, art, music, photography, Transcendental Meditation, and—more recently—nightclub design and weather forecasting. His sources of influence are equally diverse, spanning painting, photography, cinema, literature, and beyond—each playing a role in unlocking the depth of his singular vision.

Arriving September 9, 2025, in a lavish slipcased hardcover, expertly researched and filled with a rich range of images, DAVID LYNCH: His Work, His World brings together Lynch’s complete output in one collection, including a filmography and discography, telling the full story how he worked, created, thought, and lived.
