Gaarder, born 1952, was for many years a teacher of philosophy in Bergen. He now lives in Oslo with his wife and two sons, and is a full time writer. In various ways his books take up subjects like philosophy and curiosity. The huge success of his books came as a surprise to the Norwegian author; he did not expected his young adult books focusing on philosophy to have the massive sales potential which they turned out to have.
