ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFrom Mexico to Paris, from Havana to New York, from the assassination of the Archduke of Austria to the detonation of atomic bombs in Japan, amidst bohemian artists and secret agents, Madness and Reason unfolds an epic, romantic, erotic, and dizzying narrative. 1913: An amnesiac artist lost in a Mexico marked by The Ten Tragic Days, a mysterious Spanish journalist covering the imminent European war, an information-trafficking prostitute, and an enigmatic German spy trying to escape his double life are the protagonists of a story of madness and reason that sweeps through passions and explains the cause of all wars. The trickeries among European powers fighting for dominance over Mexico intertwine with the imperial race of the United States; the English plan a world war, and the German spies deploy a political chess game to gain an advantage in the conflict. In the middle of a world convulsed by war, three individuals manage to find peace in the only place where it is possible to find it: within themselves.
