Set against the backdrop of the American criminal justice system, the novel follows Darrell Standing, a professor who, after committing murder, faces life in San Quentin. Subjected to the torturous "jacket" in solitary confinement, he discovers a means of escape through the power of his imagination, allowing him to traverse time and space. Inspired by Ed Morrell's real-life experiences, the story critiques the brutality of punishment while exploring themes of hope and psychological resilience. This inventive science fiction work highlights the depravities of incarceration.
