David Mitchell combines flat-out adventure, a Nabokovian lore of puzzles, a keen eye for character, and a taste for mind-bending philosophical and scientific speculation (in the tradition of Umberto Eco, Haruki Murakami, and Philip K. Dick) in Cloud Atlas where he explores with daring artistry fundamental questions of reality and identity.
Wild and mysterious, Cloud Atlas is an unforgettable tour de force that, like its incomparable author, has transcended its cult classic status to become a worldwide phenomenon.
“Mitchell is, clearly, a genius. He writes as though at the helm of some perpetual dream machine, can evidently do anything, and his ambition is written in magma across this novel’s every page.” -- The New York Times Book Review
