Synopsis: From the Easton Press Collector's Note: "The older people get, the more time the spend reflecting on their lives. In particular, they frequently wonder how different things might have been had they made other choices at pivotal moments in their lives. They realize they'll never know for sure how things might have turned out, but their "what if" wonderment opens up an array of possibilities for them to ponder. In Matt Haig's bestselling novel The Midnight Library, despondent Nora Seed is given the opportunity to learn exactly how her life would have turned out had she made different decisions. Beyond the edge of the universe, between life and death, this library holds an infinite number of books. Each contains the story of another reality. What if this woman on the verge of suicide had followed a different career path? What if she could restore broken relationships? What if she could undo other regrets? As she travels through this endless library, Nora must decide which of these lives is the most fulfilling, as well as what makes life worth living in the first place. The Midnight Library was short-listed for the 2021 British Book Awards "fiction book of the year." It was also adapted for radio and broadcast in 10 episodes on BBC Radio 4 in 2020."
