‘Dan Brown meets Greta Thunberg’ – A River Divided is a
classic nature v nurture story with a divine twist and an almighty
battle to save the Amazon. As different artists sculpt different
statues from the same block of marble, different environments
produce different characters, even in identical twins. Evelyn, a
geneticist and amateur archeologist, makes a formidable discovery
in Israel, the consequence of which is the birth of Christopher and
José, identical twins raised apart, one in affluent Sydney, the
other in the slums of Buenos Aires. The twins, unaware of each
other’s existence or their origin, will meet for a moment only,
in the Amazon, adversaries in the battle for the forest. Standing
by both twins is Lorena, a medical student who under the claws of a
dictatorship organizes the student environmental resistance. A
novel whose heroes travel to four continents in search of their
identity. How can values such as love, faith, forgiveness and
freedom change their lives? What are the limits of science and the
brain? Can there be consilience between humans and nature?
