Has anyone else read this? It's a novel on the history of philosophy with a really weird twist near the end. The plot somewhat mirrors the thought of the philosopher(s) being studied at each point, which is cool.
I read this book for an assignment in English class, and have since been through it a couple of times. It's definitely one of my favourites, though I'm not yet entirely sure of why.
Has anyone read anything else by Jostein Gaarder? I read The Ringmaster's Daughter and am in the process of reading "The Solitaire Mystery" (well, in French - La mystère de la patience), though I may have to give up and give it a go in English first.
(here's hoping I'm getting the linking right - couldn't find the right one for The Ringmaster's Daughter)
