Noa Menhaim is a geological outlier, author, literary editor, and proprietor of many intellectual rabbit holes. She describes herself as the crazy aunt who badgers people with weird and wonderful facts. She decided to consolidated all of her tidbits into a book, The Life Fantastic. The pages are crammed so full, the content overflows into the margins. Listen in as we find out how myths are made, why some disappear, and how Noa does her research. Dive into a world of unicorns, witches, mermaids, and werewolves. Notepads at the ready.
