《蘇菲的世界》作者 Jostein Gaarder喬斯坦‧賈德   另一動人作品 

生物探險學家丈夫法蘭克寫給因女兒過逝而分居的妻子薇拉的長信，在探險中遇到了一對謎樣的戀人，仿若古老箴言般，安娜與荷西這對戀人之間的對話總是充滿著洞識哲理，失去擎愛的法蘭克，思索著生命存在的意義和面對挫折時的自我探索，隨著故事發展，讓法蘭克從中獲得了成長，並再次與妻子薇拉相聚而複合。
作者 Jostein Gaarder 以一個帶著輪迴傳奇色彩的故事，用生命與環境科學發展之間的關係，傳達人類的生命需要花數十億年來累積與延續，但破壞卻可以在轉瞬之間。

謎樣的哲理或許費解難懂，但精彩的故事卻牽動人心，Jostein Gaarder將52張箴言帶入故事之中，引領我們思索生命的意義！

A chance meeting on the Fijian island of Taveuni is the trigger for a fascinating and mysterious novel that intertwines the stories of John Spooke, an English author who is grieving for his dead wife; Frank Andersen, a Norwegian evolutionary biologist estranged from his wife Vera; and an enigmatic Spanish couple, Ana and Jose, who are absorbed in their love for each other. Why does Ana bear such a close resemblance to the model for Goya's famous Maja paintings? What is the significance of the Joker as he steps out of his pack of cards? As the action moves from Fiji to Spain, from the present to the past, unfolding further stories within the stories, the novel reveals an astonishing richness and complexity. As bold and imaginative in its sweep as Sophie's World, it shows again that Jostein Gaarder's unique and special gift is to make us wonder at the awe-inspiring mystery of the universe.
