Join us on Oct. 4, 2019, at 7pm ET, when a panel of experts and Pullman enthusiasts will discuss the His Dark Materials and ongoing Book of Dust series shortly after The Secret Commonwealth‘s release.
We will be asking,
- Why should we read Pullman’s work? What is the literary and cultural significance of His Dark Materials?
- Pullman in context: How does Pullman’s work compare and contrast to that of other writers such as Lewis, Tolkien, Le Guin, and Rowling?
- What are our expectations and hopes for The Book of Dust trilogy?
The event will end with a short reading of the first few pages of The Secret Commonwealth.
