Immemorial

by D.L. Christopher

In an England still reeling from the largest terrorist attack in its history, torn apart by social unrest, a man wakes to find himself accused of that attack, but with no memory of the event. As he reacquaints himself with the present, he must discover his identity and come to terms with a past that haunts his dreams. Who is Ernest Featherstone? Why can he not remember?

Part satire, part traditional literary dystopia, Immemorial is a dark and witty exploration of identity, morality, religion and relationships against a backdrop of an England in turmoil.

About the author

D.L. Christopher is most likely a figment of either his own or somebody else's imagination and has managed through sheer hard work and determination to progress from humble beginnings to a marginally less humble present. His work, at last count, has been enjoyed by almost ten people, none of whom were publishers. He persists in trying to give his work to people in the earnest belief that the law of averages dictates one of them will be suffering from some kind of mental illness and will therefore enjoy it.

Interesting story. A terrific twist at the end which made me rethink my opinions about certain characters. Nicely written.

Vaguely interesting,  mostly because of the examination of the morality of punishing a person for a crime he has no knowledge of committing, but ultimately there's too little meat to the story.  And I totally missed the "witty" part.
