When Palestinian terrorists seize control of the aircraft, the hostage crisis quickly becomes a darkly ironic meditation on wealth, art, ideology, and moral compromise. McCarthy presents a razor-sharp dissection of Western liberal values under pressure, pitting the privileged world of art collectors against the ruthless logic of revolutionary politics. Written with McCarthy's trademark wit and psychological precision, the novel argues that the true cost of idealism is only revealed when civilised people are stripped of their comfortable certainties.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956371402971,"sku":"2026200008628-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/43a73f99-87bf-491e-9d58-f12983dc859c.png?v=1783500411","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008628-secondhand-cannibals-and-missionaries","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
