Modem Times 2.0
Jerry Cornellius, the hero of Nebula award-winning science fiction writer, editor and musician Michael Moorcock, embarks on a turbulent adventure in the multiverse. On his journey, which starts in London in the 1960s, Jerry stops by stops such as New Orleans, Guantanamo, and California, and does not ignore the major political characters and events of the modern world. Many controversial issues such as the Sunni-Shiite conflict and inhumane practices in Abu Ghraib prison did not escape Moorcock's radar.
