THE MEMORY PALACE True Short Stories of the Past

Channeling the author's trademark enthusiasm, humor, and curiosity, a host of big-name actors and voice talents such as Ryan Reynolds and Golden Voice Robin Miles narrate selections from Nate DiMeo's singular and popular podcast. DiMeo's stock-in-trade includes Plymouth Rock, the nickel candy bar, and a telescope that could see the canals on Mars as he finds the beauty and grace in a circus of natural oddities, Americana, and other lost historic nuggets. Better yet, with a voice of reflection and deep personal connection the author saves the final quarter of the book for himself, taking a deep dive into his family history and focusing on his grandparents, who owned a vaudeville-style nightclub in the 1930-40s. DiMeo's stories and tone are full of passion and wonder--the way history should be told. B.P. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2025]
