The Jacket Chapter 5

from The Jack London Library · host Jack London

In which a man condemned to solitary confinement endures the crushingly slow passage of time by cultivating sleep, engaging in mental exercises, and observing the curious habits of house-flies that share his cell. Amidst the silence and isolation, he discovers a secret knuckle-tapping code that links him to two fellow prisoners, forging a fragile companionship in the otherwise unyielding darkness.
