Sophie's World (Norwegian: Sofies verden) is a 1991 novel by
Norwegian essayist Jostein Gaarder. It takes after the occasions of Sophie
Amundsen, a young lady living in Norway, and Alberto Knox, a moderately aged
rationalist who acquaints her with philosophical reasoning and the historical
backdrop of theory.
Sophie's World was initially composed in Norwegian and turned
into a blockbuster in Norway. It won the Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis in
1994. The English adaptation of the novel was distributed in 1995, and the book
was accounted for to be the top of the line book on the planet in that year. By
2011 the novel had been converted into fifty-nine dialects, with more than
forty million duplicates in Printing. It is a standout amongst the most
monetarily fruitful Norwegian books outside of Norway, and has been adjusted into
a film and a PC diversion.
Sophie Amundsen (Sofie Amundsen in the Norwegian form) is a
14-year-old young lady who lives in Norway in the year 1990.
The book starts with Sophie getting two messages in her
letter drop and a postcard routed to Hilde Møller Knag. A while later, she gets
a bundle of papers, some portion of a course in rationality.
Sophie, without the learning of her mom, turns into the
understudy of an old rationalist, Alberto Knox. Alberto shows her about the
historical backdrop of logic. She gets a substantive and reasonable survey from
the Pre-Socratics to Jean-Paul Sartre. Alongside the reasoning lessons, Sophie
and Alberto endeavor to outmaneuver the secretive Albert Knag, who seems to
have God-like forces, which Alberto finds very disturbing.
Sophie and Alberto's whole world is uncovered to be an
artistic development by Albert Knag as a present for his little girl, Hilde, on
her fifteenth birthday celebration.
As Albert Knag keeps on interfering with Sophie's life,
Alberto causes her battle back by showing her all that he thinks about theory.
Alberto figures out how to discover an arrangement so he and Sophie can at long
last escape Albert's creative energy. The "trap" is performed on
Midsummer's Eve, after Alberto educates Sophie's mom about everything.
