books everybody should read → his dark materials by philip pullman
what it’s about: the trilogy is the coming of age story of lyra belacqua and will parry; who wander through a multiverse of parallel universes
why you should read it: it’s a fantastic combination of magic, science and theology; it features a number of fantasy elements such as witches and (my personal favourite) armoured polar bears; encompasses a broad range of ideas from physics, philosophy, and theology; and is essentially a study of humanity. the world building is so incredibly, incredibly detailed and so easy to imagine, it truly feels as if you are part of the story.as for what it’s against - the story is against those who pervert and misuse religion, or any other kind of doctrine with a holy book and a priesthood and an apparatus of power that wields unchallengeable authority, in order to dominate and suppress human freedoms. -
Quote reblogged from and when you sleep you remind me of the deadThe idea hovered and shimmered delicately, like a soap bubble, and she dared not even look at it directly in case it burst. But she was familiar with the way of ideas, and she let it shimmer, looking away, thinking about something else.Philip Pullman Northern Lights (via sempiternale)
