To you, perceptive reader, I bequeath my history....Late one night, exploring her father's library, a young woman finds an ancient book and a cache of yellowing letters. The letters are all addressed to "My dear and unfortunate successor," and they plunge her into a world she never dreamed of-a labyrinth where the secrets of her father's past and her mother's mysterious fate connect to an inconceivable evil hidden in the depths of history.The letters provide links to one of the darkest powers that humanity has ever known-and to a centuries-long quest to find the source of that darkness and wipe it out. It is a quest for the truth about Vlad the Impaler, the medieval ruler whose barbarous reign formed the basis of the legend of Dracula. Generations of historians have risked their reputations, their sanity, and even their lives to learn the truth about Vlad the Impaler and Dracula. Now one young woman must decide whether to take up this quest herself-to follow her father in a hunt that nearly brought him to ruin years ago, when he was a vibrant young scholar and her mother was still alive. What does the legend of Vlad the Impaler have to do with the modern world? Is it possible that the Dracula of myth truly existed-and that he has lived on, century after century, pursuing his own unknowable ends? The answers to these questions cross time and borders, as first the father and then the daughter search for clues, from dusty Ivy League libraries to Istanbul, Budapest, and the depths of Eastern Europe. In city after city, in monasteries and archives, in letters and in secret conversations, the horrible truth emerges about Vlad the Impaler's dark reign-and about a time-defying pact that may have kept his awful work alive down through the ages.Parsing obscure signs and hidden texts, reading codes worked into the fabric of medieval monastic traditions-and evading the unknown adversaries who will go to any lengths to conceal and protect Vlad's ancient powers-one woman comes ever closer to the secret of her own past and a confrontation with the very definition of evil. Elizabeth Kostova's debut novel is an adventure of monumental proportions, a relentless tale that blends fact and fantasy, history and the present, with an assurance that is almost unbearably suspenseful-and utterly unforgettable.

具體描述

讀後感

評分

一本很值得一看的历史小说。对于吸血鬼的传说,我多是看言情小说的。不过吸血鬼的形象已经被确立了下来——怕阳光、大蒜和十字架。 言情小说里的吸血鬼都是很深情专一的,可是读完这部小说后,我深切得感受到一种来自黑暗的恐惧,以致于有点草木皆兵了。但还是想着要读完。...

这其实不是一本“很好看”的小说,我是指如果你的阅读速度很快,短篇小说两个小时能搞定,长篇小说最多也只要两天,那么它大概不适合你。这是一本需要静下心来,读一段停一停的小说。 对《历史学家》感兴趣完全是因为《达·芬奇密码》,《达·芬奇密码》登上美国畅销书排行榜...

旧文新发。主题散漫 近日,观海西流行小说界再起吸血鬼风潮,我也顺便翻了翻《The Historian》与《Twilight》系列。电子书确实让人看着头疼,不过英语还是有了点提高。尤其推荐《The Historian》,遣词和行文充满了维多利亚时代风格,muy 复古, muy怀旧,喜欢福尔...

評分

前一段时间看完了一个朋友推荐看的小说《the Historian》,一直没有时间写些感受。 今天随手翻来,还是简单的写几句吧。书里讲一个关于吸血鬼的故事。自己只知道市面上有很多关于吸血鬼的电影,说老实话,我是一部也没看过。但听朋友说起这本书的时候,没有表现出一丝的恐惧情...
