商品簡介
A wild, astonishing literary thriller about Manhattan and Hollywood in the 1930s, Mayan gods, and a CIA operation gone terribly wrong--acclaimed British novelist Ned Beauman's most marvelous work yet.
In 1938, two rival expeditions descend on an ancient temple recently discovered in the jungles of Honduras, one intending to shoot a huge Hollywood production on location there, the other to disassemble the temple and ship it back to New York. A seemingly endless stalemate ensues. Twenty years later, a rogue CIA agent sets out to exploit the temple for his own ends, unaware that it is a locus of conspiracies far grander than anyone could ever have guessed.
Shot through with insanity, intrigue, ingenuity, and adventure, and showcasing Beauman's anarchic humor, spectacular imagination, and riveting prose, Madness Is Better Than Defeat teases, absorbs, entertains, and dazzles in equal measure.
