BBC Radio 4 - The Midnight Library by Matt Haig, Episode 7

Nora performs live with her rock band The Labyrinths.

Nora explores the life in which she sings and writes songs for the best-selling rock band The Labyrinths.

Between life and death there is a library - The Midnight Library.

Nora Seed finds herself there and discovers that each book in the Midnight Library is an opportunity - to explore the lives she might now lead if she had acted differently, and to undo her regrets (of which she has many).

None of these lives is what she imagined.

As the librarian in The Midnight Library tells her, ‘Sometimes the only way to learn is to live.’ But what is the best way for Nora to live?
