James Morrow's Galpagos Regained centers around the imaginary Chloe Bathurst, an unemployed Victorian celebrity who finds focus on Charles Darwin's house, nurturing the weird birds, incredible lizards, and gigantic tortoises he brought back from his trip throughout the world.

Before she knows it, her ambitions send her off on the wild trip - a voyage by brigantine to Brazil, a steamboat trip the Amazon . com, a hot-air balloon flight over the Andes - bound for the Galpagos archipelago, where she intends to accumulate the live specimens by which she might demonstrate evolutionary theory to the contest judges.
