Clockwork, or All Wound Up is an illustrated short children's book by Philip Pullman, first published in the United Kingdom in 1996 by Doubleday, and in the United States by Arthur A. Levine Books in 1998. The Doubleday edition was illustrated by Peter Bailey and the Arthur A. Levine Books edition was illustrated by Leonid Gore.[1] It was shortlisted for both the Whitbread Children's Book Award and for a Carnegie Medal in 1997.[2]
Pullman has said his novel was inspired by an old clock he came across in London's Science Museum.[1] Noting the movement of the clock's gears, he wrote the story with elements that move in opposite directions.[3]
