Listen "5 Non-Fiction Books to Keep You Up at Night"
Episode Synopsis
What do you find scary? The threat of a cyber attack or dangling by a wire from one of the world’s tallest structures? What if you discovered that the person you see and know to be real is actually a hallucination? Perhaps you’d prefer to curl up with a collection of folk tales from a state rich with cultural history. What if you went to bed, unaware of a deadly leviathan silently approaching your community? I break the rule today by creeping past the 10-minute mark (just) to bring you five recommendations that I hope are mostly new to you!Subscribe to this podcast or the accompanying Reflections by G blog, for more reflections.https://www.glendalynndixon.com/blogIntro music: Fairy G, by Dan O’Grady, https://www.patreon.com/danogradyBook titles and authors recommended in this episode:Gumbo Ya-Ya: Folk Tales of Louisiana by Lyle Saxon, Edward Dreyer, and Robert TallantThe Wake: The Deadly Legacy of a Newfoundland Tsunami, Lindsey MacIntyreHallucinations by Oliver SacksThis is How They Tell Me the World Ends, By Nicole PerlrothScream: Chilling Adventures in the Science of Fear by Margee Kerr
