The World According to Merle is a humorous, heart‑warming memoir by Merle Levin, a woman who defies age, convention, and expectation. At 75, she is a vibrant force of nature, living life entirely on her own terms.
From marvelling at the navigational genius of dung beetles in the Kalahari, to braving icy waters with her “Soggy Bottoms” swimming group, to sparring playfully with Jeff, her husband of 50 years, Merle’s adventures reveal a life lived without rules.
Born into a 1950s Jewish family in Vereeniging, South Africa, Merle embraced rebellion early. She emigrated in the 1970s to start anew in Canada with little money and even fewer plans, her choices have always been bold, brave, and unconventional.
On this rollicking journey through her extraordinary life, we are given profound insights and wisdom gained from living on the edge.
