Hello!

After 20 years I recently reread Philip Pullman's HIs Dark Materials trilogy and here's some rambly thoughts on it!

Closed Captions available.

His Dark Materials:
Northern Lights (or The Golden Compass), 1995
The Subtle Knife, 1997
The Amber Spyglass, 2000

Very vague timestamps:
00:00 Intro
01:55 Paradise Lost 2: The Revenge
03:24 NORTHERN LIGHTS
09:05 THE SUBTLE KNIFE
16:10 THE AMBER SPYGLASS
21:13 What is the message at the end of the trilogy?
25:00 Conclusion


Here's a fantastic (SPOILERY) interview where Philip Pullman goes deep into the themes of the book:

Couldn't find the artist's name but here's where the image of the Mulefa came from after a Google image search:

Thanks for watching!
