From this irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through successive letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while also receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning--but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined."--Page 4 of cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Gaarder Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Gaarder in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Gaarder Claimed Returned 07/27/2020 Add Copy to MyList
