In this riveting new novel, best-selling author John Darnton transports us to Victorian England and around the world to reveal the secrets of a legendary nineteenth-century figure. Darnton elegantly blends the power of fact and the insights of fiction to explore the many mysteries attached to the life and work of Charles Darwin.

What led Darwin to the theory of evolution? Why did he wait twenty-two years to write On the Origin of Species? Why was he incapacitated by mysterious illnesses and frightened of travel? Who was his secret rival? These are some of the questions driving Darnton’s richly dramatic narrative, which unfolds through three vivid points of view: Darwin’s own as he sails around the world aboard the Beagle; his daughter Lizzie’s as she strives to understand the guilt and fear that struck her father at the height of his fame; and that of present-day anthropologist Hugh Kellem and Darwin scholar Beth Dulicmer, whose obsession with Darwin (and with each other) drives them beyond the accepted boundaries of scholarly research. What Hugh and Beth discover–Lizzie’s diaries and letters lead them to a hidden chapter of Darwin’s autobiography–is a maze of bitter rivalries, petty deceptions, and jealously guarded secrets, at the heart of which lies the birth of the theory of evolution.

With The Darwin Conspiracy, John Darnton again delivers a stunning tapestry of history and imagination, a galvanizing novel.

读后感

历史背景坚实?达尔文暂且不说,把华莱士描写成一个惟利是图的奸恶之辈,不知是否历史真实?如果不是,那就涉嫌污蔑诽谤了。总觉得对历史真实人物的艺术创造不该是这样的。

看得好累,文中的几条线索反过来,转过去,时不时地挑战我大条的神经。看书的时候,LD和好友在阳朔的各家小店中兴奋地购物,我守在门口看这本书。 看的途中,曾有想过,不要再看下去了,又没有阴谋,又没有爱情,没有暴力。但是止不住的就是想,究竟是怎么回事? 从这点来看...

我很郁闷的是我竟然花了好几天的时间看完这本又长又臭故弄玄虚的书,途中无数次箱放弃阅读,但还是心存侥幸的希望这故事能好物沉归底戏肉在后头,结果最终证明我实在是浪费时间。只能说这本书纯粹是想借《达芬奇的密码》的东风来挣钱。
