Bernardine Evaristo didn't think there were enough books being published about Black British women, so she wrote one herself. Girl, Woman, Other looks at the lives of many different British women, mostly Black women, from 19 to 93 years old. Some of their stories intertwine while others stay separate. Evaristo told NPR's Scott Simon that she wanted "to show the heterogeneity of who we are in this society, and to explore us as fully realized, complex, driven, flawed individuals whose stories are as worthy of telling as anyone else's."

On March 1, 1932, one of the most famous men in the world, Charles Lindbergh, woke up to find that his 20-month-old son had been taken from his crib. 

It was the biggest news story of the era and it has been called the crime of the century. 

90 years later, people are still enthralled with the crime and are searing for clues.

Noah Hawley is a world builder. He created the TV shows Fargo and Legion, so he is no stranger to getting an audience immersed in his worlds. His new novel Anthem is no different. But it doesn't take that much imagination, despite the fantasy creatures: This world is remarkably similar to ours. Hawley was interested in looking at the state of the world that is getting passed down to future generations. Hawley told NPR's Ayesha Rascoe his goal was to write "a fantasy novel about our real world or a realistic novel about the fantasy world that we're living in." Mission accomplished.

SCUBA diving is a popular activity that has recreational and commercial uses. 

Most people who have never gone SCUBA diving think that it is just a matter of breathing air out of a tank when you are underwater. However, there is a lot more to it.

In fact, solving the problem of underwater breathing wasn’t solved until after humans discovered artificial flight and split the atom. 

Learn more about SCUBA diving, its history and how it works, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Author Marlon James is following up Black Leopard, Red Wolf with a new fantasy novel Moon Witch, Spider King. It tells the same story as Black Leopard, Red Wolf but this time it's from the perspective of the character Sogolon as she hunts for a missing child. James is inviting the reader to question his narratives by telling the story twice but from different points of view. He told NPR's Michel Martin that the novels are non-linear in the tradition of African folklore.

John J. Miller is joined by Christian Schneider to discuss his book, 'Anti-Knowledge.'
