Philip will read from his new book, La Belle Sauvage. Following the reading, he will be interviewed by Professor Simon Kövesi, Head of English and Modern Languages at Oxford Brookes.
La Belle Sauvage is the first volume in The Book of Dust, a companion to the global bestselling series, His Dark Materials. The story centres upon an 11-year-old boy called Malcolm Polstead – who lives in an inn by the Thames in Oxford. Attentive readers may remember Malcolm’s brief appearance as a university scholar in Lyra’s Oxford.
