The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer is a 1990 spin-off novel from the television series Twin Peaks by Jennifer Lynch.[1] Lynch, then aged 22, is the daughter of series co-creator David Lynch.[1] It was published between the airing of the first and second season.
The novel is said to be "As seen by Jennifer Lynch," and is written in a matter-of-fact tone[2] from the point of view of Laura Palmer, a small-town teenager —a "good girl gone bad"[3]— who is abused and terrorized by the demonic entity BOB.[4] Lynch says she was told by her father and Mark Frost, co-creator of the series, to "be Laura Palmer,"[5] and that she "knew Laura so well it was like automatic writing."[6]
