About Stranger Than Fiction
Stranger than Fiction is AV’s non-fiction show, where we bring some of the best true stories – and best writing about truth – you’ll find in these fact-starved times. History, Memoirs, analysis, and scholarship – but always a darn good tale that just happens to be true.
Stranger Than Fiction is co-hosted by Paul Berlanga. Paul is a Chicago native with duel careers in rare books and art.
