Several thousand years from now, advanced humanoids known as the Makers will implant clockwork devices
into our heads. At the cost of a certain amount of agency, these devices will permit us to move unhindered
through time and space, and to live complacent, wellregulated
lives. However, when one of these devices goes
awry, a "clockwork man" appears accidentally in the 1920s, at a cricket match in a small English village.
Comical yet mindblowing
hijinks ensue.
