The worldwide philosophy bestseller reimagined as a graphic novel
One day, Sophie receives a cryptic letter posing an intriguing question:
"Who are you?" A second message soon follows: "Where does the world come
from?" It is the beginning of an unusual correspondence between our
curious young heroine and her mysterious penpal. As the questions begin
to pile up, Sophie is propelled headlong into a startling adventure
through the history of Western philosophy. Her search for answers will
see her explore each of the major schools of thought, as she tries to
uncover the true nature of the letters, her secretive teacher... and,
above all, herself! In this witty comics adaptation, Zabus and Nicoby
have reinvented Jostein Gaarder's novel of ideas - a beloved bestseller
that has already won the hearts of over 50 million readers around the
world - to bring Sophie's charming exploration of meaning and existence
to a whole new medium.
