Hrm... the blog also doesn't state where Samantha bought the house... Alan did say "It's not a lake... it's an ocean." at the end of Alan Wake 1...
ETA: By where I mean if Ordinary is ocean-side or not.

For Poem 14 it was written: "Which are you drinking? The water or the wave?" and the name of the author: "John Fowles"."
This is in reference to "The Magus".
Quote:
The Magus (1966) is the first novel written (but second published) by British author John Fowles. It tells the story of Nicholas Urfe, a teacher on a small Greek island. Urfe finds himself embroiled in psychological illusions of a master trickster that become increasingly dark and serious.
The novel was a bestseller, partly because it tapped successfully into – and, arguably, helped to promote – the 1960s popular interests in psychoanalysis and mystical philosophy.
In Poem 16
"Inside this shoebox we killed for
There is
No cat, poisoned or otherwise, dead or living, undead, un-cat" ...
Sounds like a reference to Schrödinger's cat. For what it's worth.

Poem #8 The extra poem at the bottom of Poem #8 is the exact same as the one used in the Max Payne universe's Address Unknown.
