À propos de ce contenu audio
The Lost World is Arthur Conan Doyle's 1912 novel of the Amazonian plateau, and the book that gave Professor Challenger to the world. It opens in London with a young Irish reporter, Edward Malone, trying to impress the woman he loves by doing something dangerous. His editor sends him to interview the most hated scientist in England: George Edward Challenger, a huge, bearded, roaring man who has just been laughed at by the Zoological Institute for claiming he met a living prehistoric creature in South America.
The interview ends with broken furniture and a challenge. Challenger's photographs, he insists, prove that an isolated tableland in the Amazon basin still holds the animals of the Jurassic. A scientific expedition is mounted — Challenger, the dry and sceptical Professor Summerlee, the aristocratic hunter Lord John Roxton, and Malone as the man who will write it up. They go up the river, past Gomez and the traitorous half-breed porters, up the cliff face, and onto a lost world of dinosaurs, pterodactyls, giant ticks and a tribe of ape-men at war with a smaller, more human people.
What follows is part adventure, part natural history, and part comedy of scientific vanity: the night raid of the dinosaurs on the camp, Malone's climb to the highest tree to map the plateau, the ape-men's cliff-edge massacre, the Indian village and the balloon escape, and finally the London hall where Challenger's truth is put to a vote and Gladys, the girl who started it, has quietly married a solicitor's clerk named Potts.
