"Sophie's World" by Jostein Gaarder (ep. 101)

WS Podcast

About this episode

In the eighth episode, I present you with the wonderful and insightful book by Jostein Gaarder "Sophie's World". In this novel, the author invites us to explore the depths of Western philosophies, as we know them while telling a beautiful story about Sophie - a Norvegian teenager, whose life suddenly changes course due to a mysterious letter she encounters. It is a worthy read for both the amateurs and the borderline fanatics of philosophical discourse. As we explore the story, we get to face questions worth pondering and observe our thoughts of ours, which stem from thinking these thought-provoking ideas. Reflecting on the book's impression on me, I will mention my perspective on philosophical and religious education in Poland, as well as invite you to consider some rather abstract concepts worth a ponder. As always, I will offer you a little invitation to exercise the might of your mind!

If you do get to read it following my invitation, make sure to let me know your thoughts! Maybe, it will be the book to change your life as well…

All the love, all the power, all of the time…
