Two years before the prequel Twin Peaks movie Fire Walk With Me, Jennifer Lynch showed off her writing chops at the start of her filmmaking career with a Twin Peaks companion book. The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer was published between the air dates of seasons 1 and 2 of the original series, but its events are set before Twin Peaks, which would change TV forever.
Laura Palmer Had Two Diaries In Twin Peaks Like Much Of Twin Peaks, Laura's Diary Has A Doppelgänger Close From the beginning of Twin Peaks, Laura Palmer’s diary – unceremoniously burst open by Cooper – is a key piece of evidence in the mystery. Laura writes cryptic clues such as, “Nervous about meeting J tonight,” adding to the enigma that hooks viewers over 32 years after Twin Peaks season 2’s finale.
The diary Jennifer Lynch penned shows she knew about the upcoming plot, and that the book was intended as a companion. Its authenticity is enhanced by her use of foreshadowing, especially in the early pages, adding even more tragedy to Laura’s sad story. A 12-year-old Laura ironically states about her mother Sarah, “She’s crazy if she thinks I’ll be a grown-up in no time,” – Laura’s trauma cruelly ages her beyond her years, and her life is cut short.
