NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Checkout 19’ explores the magic of escaping with a good book

The nameless narrator in author Claire-Louise Bennett's new novel, Checkout 19, absolutely loves books. Their mere presence puts her at ease. But her lifelong love of reading is, in part, because she feels let down by the people around her. Bennett told NPR's Scott Simon that loving to read is amazing, but there's a danger in always living other's experiences before having some of your own.

There is one substance that makes up 98% of the observable matter in the universe, yet you will almost never encounter it in its native form.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Peach Blossom Spring’ interrogates the meaning of home

Can you belong to more than one home? Author Melissa Fu sets out to answer that question in her debut novel Peach Blossom Spring. The story of the Peach Blossom Spring was first told by a poet over one thousand years ago: A fisherman stumbles upon a paradise of peach trees and has to decide whether to abandon his old life and stay in this beautiful place or go back home. That is the same predicament that Fu's main character Renshu faces. Fu told NPR's Ailsa Chang that it's hard to live in two cultures but she wouldn't have it any other way.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Rite of Spring Riot

Classical music is not usually associated with rowdiness and mayhem. They tend to be rather well-behaved and if anything, they might express their disapproval by simplifying not clapping loudly enough. 


However, there was one major exception to this. On a single night in Paris about 110 years ago, a crowd erupted into a riot over the premiere of a ballet. 


Learn more about classical music’s most notorious evening, the premiere of the Rite of Spring, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
