Bilbao, Spain
Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology and religious iconology, arrives at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend a major announcement—the unveiling of a discovery that “will change the face of science forever.” The evening’s host is Edmond Kirsch, a forty-year-old billionaire and futurist whose dazzling high-tech inventions and audacious predictions have made him a renowned global figure. Kirsch, who was one of Langdon’s first students at Harvard two decades earlier, is about to reveal an astonishing breakthrough . . . one that will answer two of the fundamental questions of human existence.
As the event begins, Langdon and several hundred guests find themselves captivated by an utterly original presentation, which Langdon realizes will be far more controversial than he ever imagined. But the meticulously orchestrated evening suddenly erupts into chaos, and Kirsch’s precious discovery teeters on the brink of being lost forever. Reeling and facing an imminent threat, Langdon is forced into a desperate bid to escape Bilbao. With him is Ambra Vidal, the elegant museum director who worked with Kirsch to stage the provocative event. Together they flee to Barcelona on a perilous quest to locate a cryptic password that will unlock Kirsch’s secret.
Navigating the dark corridors of hidden history and extreme religion, Langdon and Vidal must evade a tormented enemy whose all-knowing power seems to emanate from Spain’s Royal Palace itself . . . and who will stop at nothing to silence Edmond Kirsch. On a trail marked by modern art and enigmatic symbols, Langdon and Vidal uncover clues that ultimately bring them face-to-face with Kirsch’s shocking discovery . . . and the breathtaking truth that has long eluded us.
Origin is stunningly inventive—Dan Brown's most brilliant and entertaining novel to date.
世间本没有创造,因为万物早就存在于自然之中了。 所谓创造,就是回归本源。 ——安东尼·高迪 从《数字城堡》开始,一本书接一本书,丹•布朗把自己写成了一个标签,这个标签在书中最显著的标志就是每本小说开始前的“事实”说明,根据小说涉及的内容表述略有差异,在《本源...
评分兰登边听边看。屏幕上单词跟音乐的结合让他莫名地感到心神不宁。音乐显然是宗教音乐,但文字却不 是。 有机生物……最强者生……最弱者死…… 兰登突然停下脚步。 我知道这段音乐! 几年前埃德蒙曾带兰登去看过一场名叫《查尔斯·达尔文弥撒曲》的演出。这是一首基督教风格的弥...
评分刚刚看完。对于一个久不翻纸媒的人来说,阅读《本源》有一种回归从前的喜悦。 人工智能会多大程度地介入、改变、改造、掠夺人类的生存,曾经是遥远的话题,眼下却是现在进行时。某种程度上,在这个进程中,人类扮演的是上帝的角色。人类孜孜不倦地推进人工智能的演进,成为它的...
评分和全球绝大多数《本源》出版方一样,《本源》简体中文版出版方选择了英国Bantam出版社版封面作为自己译本的封面,那么问题来了,除英国Bantam出版社版封面以外,《本源》还有哪几种封面呢? 美国版封面主意象为白色螺旋楼梯,该螺旋形楼梯有如贝壳,又有如一只凝视读者的眼睛,...
评分還成吧。文化藝術等元素遠遠不如之前的作品豐富,品牌植入倒是多了不少。謎團懸念搞得挺大,但最後雷聲大雨點小。雖然有道理但是還是覺得欠缺深度,不如Inferno。另外Inferno的後果這一部裡就完全當不存在了是吧?
评分基本上可以叫做嫌疑人Winston的献身了。
评分The author's mentioning Ex Machina as his favorite SF movie during the meet-and-greet is truly a huuuge spoiler. Would love to see Tom Wlaschiha play Edmond Kirsch in the possible movie based on this novel.
评分一言难尽的丹布朗的文笔
评分蹭了AI的热点,Edmond的理论还算能自圆其说吧。和前几部同样对各种建筑走马观花,但正反两方较量、斗法的部分太弱了。顺便指出核心情节其实就是“全球新闻发布会”,不知道中译本会删多少。
