I think I've told everyone I've come into contact with in the last two weeks that the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman is amazing. I decided to read the off-shoot Lyra's Oxford today. It's charming in a children's literature kind of way. There's no deeper level that engages a higher level of thought.
Pullman's additions: The postcard, pull out map, random book page, and program are lovely touches though. I love his commentary about random objects. How, they lose their meanings when they're separated from their intent.
Well, that's short like the book (a slight 50 pages).
Love,
Tiff
