🌌 ABOUT THE NOVEL

Jerusalem is a monumental metaphysical novel set in Northampton, England, spanning more than a thousand years of history and extending beyond the boundaries of time and death.

The story centres on artist Alma Warren and her brother Michael, whose childhood near-death experience reveals Mansoul, a supernatural realm where past, present, and future coexist.

Blending historical fiction, supernatural mythology, philosophy, and experimental prose, Alan Moore explores mortality, consciousness, free will, memory, and the eternal nature of existence.
