The Star Rover is a novel by Jack London, originally published in 1915. The story follows the life of a man named Darrell Standing, who is imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. While in prison, Standing is subjected to brutal treatment and torture, but he discovers a way to escape his physical surroundings through a process of self-hypnosis. By doing so, he is able to travel through time and space, reliving the lives of his past incarnations.As he journeys through his past lives, Standing gains a deeper understanding of human nature and the struggle for freedom. He experiences the lives of people from different cultures and time periods, including a Native American warrior, a medieval monk, and a French aristocrat during the Reign of Terror.Throughout the novel, London explores themes of justice, freedom, and the search for meaning in life. The Star Rover is a powerful and thought-provoking work of fiction that continues to captivate readers today.Surely, you don't think I'm holding out because I enjoy it? I managed to gasp, for at the moment Pie-Face Jones was forcing his foot into my back in order to cinch me tighter while I was trying with my muscles to steal slack. There is nothing to confess. Why, I'd cut off my right hand right now to be able to lead you to any dynamite.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
