But the lost tribe may be a clever hoax and the Hollywood movie seems doomed as the cast and crew continue to self-destruct in a cloud of drugs and ego. As the consequences of these events play out, four unforgettable characters--a wealthy, iconoclastic playboy; a woman ensnared in the sex industry; a Filipino-American writer; and a jaded actor--find themselves drawn irrevocably together in this lavish, sensual portrait of a nation in crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jessica Hagedorn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.00w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780142001097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/26\/2004 pg. 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJessica Hagedorn is the author of the novels \u003cb\u003eDogeaters\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eThe Gangster of Love\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eDream Jungle\u003c\/b\u003e, and a collection of poetry and short fiction, \u003cb\u003eDanger and Beauty\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":42992695181427,"sku":"9.78014E+12","price":26.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_1478f6dd-ba5b-42c0-83e1-ced4dc2bb4c7.jpg?v=1744715012","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/dream-jungle-9780142001097","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
