The Midnight Library by Matt Haig with Maphale Moloi

This episode I discuss Matt Haig's novel The Midnight Library with Maphale Moloi. The episode explores themes of mental health, second chances, and the human condition.


In the episode I also mention Quantum entanglement in how it suggests that two particles can be linked, even across vast distances. In the "Many-Worlds" interpretation, measuring one entangled particle splits our reality, with each possible outcome occurring in a separate parallel world. Don't @ me it's related in around about way.


The discussion prompts questions about the choices we make in life, the relatability of the protagonist Nora Seed, and the balance of dark emotions with optimism in Haig's work.

The episode also touches on the fantastical elements in Haig's novels and how they function within the narrative.
