Background
The Star Rover (published in the UK as The Jacket), one of the greatest novels by Jack London, is a gem of his literary genius.
Darrell Standing, professor of agriculture, in a fit of jealousy kills a colleague. An armchair scientist, he has to live through all the nightmares of a Californian prison. However, human spirit triumphs over human flesh and Standing finds a way to leave his body, tied up in a special “jacket,” to become an interstellar wanderer.
