The BBC World Service airs World Book Club with Jostein Gaarder on Sunday, July 6th at 12:06 ET.

World Book Club is an unclocked 53 minute program with no bottom of the hour newscast, billboard, cutaway or funder credit. Stations in automation will need to change their automation.

Description: Norwegian writer Jostein Gaarder talks to Harriett Gilbert at The House of Literature in Oslo about his world-wide bestseller, Sophie’s World.

The novel draws us into the world of the great philosophers through a fascinating story which raises profound questions about the meaning of life and the origin of the universe.

World Book Club is an evergreen program and can be downloaded from the Arts and Culture section of the BBC Partner site.
