註釋
"The novel's narrator is Martin Browning, a young musician. His wife, who is somehow involved in the arcane world of multi-national corporations, has mysteriously disappeared. Martin searches for her first in Spain, where he thinks he has caught a glimpse of her riding in the back seat of a car between two men. Then he follows her trail to the eastern slopes of the Andes. Accompanied by Juan, who may or may not be a real person, he travels toward the Second City, the capital of the Anderson Valley Project, where he is sure he will find his wife. Once in the City he comes in contact with the Electric Whores, an astrologer who is also a werewolf, a deranged midget who serves as a judge, and a sweet-smelling angelic messenger—each revealing an aspect of this oddly distorted corporate society"--Goodreads website.
