Book Description

"Souls cross ages like clouds cross skies..."
Six interlocking lives - one amazing adventure. In a narrative that circles the globe and reaches from the 19th century to a post-apocalyptic future, David Mitchell erases the boundaries of time, genre and language to offer an enthralling vision of humanity's will to power, and where it will lead us.

"It knits together science fiction, political thriller and historical pastiche with musical virtuosity and linguistic exuberance: there won't be a bigger, bolder novel this year." Justine Jordan, Guardian

"His wildest ride yet...a singular achievement, from an author of extraordinary ambition and skill" Matt Thorne, Independent on Sunday

"Mitchell's storytelling in Cloud Atlas is of the best. I was, appropriately, captivated." Lawrence Norfolk, Independent

"An elegiac, radiant festival of prescience, meditation and entertainment." Neel Mukherjee, The Times

"David Mitchell entices his readers onto a rollercoaster, and at first they wonder if they want to get off. Then - at least in my case - they can't bear the journey to end." AS Byatt, Guardian

"Funny, exciting, imaginative and energetic" Tim Lott, Evening Standard
