Query: Sophies World: Decent book, Long Read

Writing about historical philosophy can be extremely monotonous. The never ending details of each philosopher and their accomplishments find a way to all sound the same. Jostien Gaarder tried to take a different approach on this subject matter. He tried intertwining historical philosophy with an intriguing novel. This resulted in 500 pages of never ending details and subject matter that was presented the same way every chapter. The plot became extremely confusing and difficult to follow and at the same time there were so many philosophers to think about. Jostein's attempt was an unsuccessful scattered 500 page mix of history text book and story.
