作品简介
Stevenson’s brooding historical romance demonstrates his most abiding theme—the elemental struggle between good and evil—as it unfolds against a hauntingly beautiful Scottish landscape, amid the fierce loyalties and violent enmities that characterized Scottish history. When two brothers attempt to split their loyalties between the warring factions of the 1745 Jacobite rising, one family finds itself tragically divided.
罗伯特·路易斯·史蒂文森（Robert Louis Stevenson，1850年11月13日－1894年12月3日）：苏格兰小说家、诗人与旅游作家，也是英国文学新浪漫主义的代表之一。史蒂文森受到了许多作家的赞美，其中包括欧内斯特·海明威、约瑟夫·鲁德亚德·吉卜林、豪尔赫·路易斯·博尔赫斯与弗拉基米尔·纳博科夫等知名作家。然而许多现代主义的作家并不认同他，因为史蒂文森是大众化的，而且他的作品并不符合他们所定义的文学。直到最近，评论家开始审视史蒂文森而且将他的作品放入西方经典中。史蒂文森常常到处旅行，部分原因是寻找适合他治疗结核病的气候。
