Airplanes crashing into buildings, cities destroyed by The President’s Men, the country left as a patchwork quilt of functioning states and those filled with people with no hope. A construction crane transported around the country for the distressed and depressed to end their misery. The Jump, a tale that takes place in a not-too-distant future, is an absurdist, dystopian take on an America ruled by a President who has declared martial law, created a cult of personality, and ruled as a dictator for far too long. It’s a world where nothing makes sense and so much is not known.This is gonna be fun. Trust me. (Berthold Gambrel, The Directorate)
