His Dark Materials trilogy IMNAAHO knocks all the Harry Potter stuff into a cocked hat. Author Philip Pullman's trilogy of fantasy novels, His Dark Materials, could be turned into a stage play in London. The director of London's National Theatre, Nicholas Hytner, is in "advanced negotiations" to buy the stage rights to the books, which have been widely acclaimed and sold millions of copies around the world. Mr Pullman was the first children's author to win the prestigious £30,000 Whitbread Prize when judges declared The Amber Spyglass, the final book in the trilogy, the best book of the year. http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/entertainment/arts/newsid_1782000/1782187.stm Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Entire Thread Subject Posted By Posted Material advance maverick 01/25/02 08:58 PM Re: Material advance AnnaStrophic 01/25/02 09:28 PM Re: Material advance Capital Kiwi 01/25/02 10:39 PM Re: Material advance belMarduk 01/26/02 01:25 AM Re: Material advance maverick 01/26/02 01:44 AM Re: Material advance wwh 01/26/02 02:09 AM Book burning AnnaStrophic 01/26/02 01:09 PM Best Banned Book Site, By Golly consuelo 01/26/02 05:45 PM Re: Book burning musick 01/26/02 07:10 PM Moderated by  Jackie  Hop To General Topics ------  Information and announcements  Q&A about words  Wordplay and fun  Words and languages in schools  Miscellany  Weekly Themes  Looking for (writers, speakers,...
