Everything Everywhere Daily - The Year 1800

In the year 1800, the last year of the 18th century, the world was on the precipice of radical change. 

The scientific revolution, the agricultural revolution, and the industrial revolution had all begun, but were yet to hit full swing. 

There were also literal revolutions afoot. Countries began overthrowing their leaders or colonial masters, a trend which would only continue in the next century. 

Learn more about the world in the year 1800 on the 1,800th episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘The Catch,’ estranged sisters confront a mystery surrounding their mother’s death

Yrsa Daley-Ward's new novel The Catch has a mind-bending premise. Clara and Dempsey are twin sisters raised separately after their mother's mysterious death. Then, on their 30th birthday, Clara swears she sees her mom on a city bus. But there's a catch: Her mom is the same age as the twins – 30. In today's episode, Daley-Ward speaks with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about what happens when we desperately want something to be true. They discuss writing as a kind of wish-fulfillment, the book's dedication to readers who have lost a parent, and Well-Read Black Girl's new publishing imprint.

NPR's Book of the Day - Madeleine Thien’s new novel ‘The Book of Records’ is a story that traverses centuries

It took author Madeleine Thien nearly a decade to write her new novel The Book of Records. In the story, 7-year-old Lina and her father take refuge at an imagined place called the Sea. There, buildings serve as a waystation for people who are fleeing one place to make home in another. Thien says she wanted to set her novel in a location where centuries and histories might converge. In today's episode, Thien talks with NPR's Ari Shapiro about her personal relationship to the three historical thinkers who enter the story: Hannah Arendt, Baruch Spinoza, and Du Fu.
