贾森·古德温（Jason Goodwin）(1964-) 是名禀赋极高的作家，毕业于剑桥大学，专攻拜占庭史，最初是一名游记作家，第一本游记书出版于1980年，书名叫《茶的盛世：在中国与印度的觅茶之旅》，其后，他分别于1990和1993年写作了另外两本游记，在1998年出版了一本《奥斯曼帝国史》。古德温在近二十年里出书甚少，但这又何尝不是潜心研究、厚积薄发之举呢？经过多年在土耳其/近东地区文化中的浸淫和在东方土地上的实地考察，杰森•古德温在出版《奥斯曼帝国史》时俨然已经成为相关历史学科方面的权威，称古德温为奥斯曼史的“活字典”一点都不为过。 经过多年的酝酿，古德温在2006年出版了他的第一部虚构类作品《禁卫军之树》（The Janissary Tree）。小说甫一上市，就广获好评，截至目前，已有30种文字的译本。年初，本书获得了埃德加•爱伦坡奖的最佳长...(展开全部)
