About this title

Synopsis

I think of him all the time, and he thinks of me not at all . . . This is the story of two brothers - one impassioned and one reserved. One is destined to go down in history and the other to be forgotten. In Philip Pullman's hands, this tale is reborn as one of the most enchanting, heart-breaking and thought-provoking stories of recent years, and questions what we believe and how we have come to believe it.
