Sophie's World

Post by Jp1978 »

I loved this book, but was not a little confused by the latter parts!

No, not that book. I meant Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder.

Is it about philosophy? Frankly, I didn't finish that one.

It was a hard book to finish. Also, I know an 8-part TV series was scripted and shown in Australia at about the same time as the CD-Rom game was released. Looking back, I think it was too much like a philosophical history lesson for me.

Was very useful to me during our Philosophy classes though I didn't really have as much fun with it as compared to Jostein Gaarder's other novels.

My most favorite book of his is "Through A Glass, Darkly" which is about a dying girl and her conversation with an angel. A very nice read.

Read also "The Christmas Mystery." :D
