frazzle 's review for:
Cloud Atlas
by David Mitchell
Truly an incredible book. Each of the stories, characters, locations, 'worlds' is so firmly impressed upon my mind - amazing given each one is probably around 80 pages. Very cleverly woven together. I especially appreciated the way he appeared to anticipate criticisms of his own book, and include them in just about every story.
Mitchell demonstrates incredible breadth and versatility. I particularly liked his Letters from Zedelghem and the story about Luisa Rey. I'm really not into fantasy at all, but the Somni story was interesting and tolerable. I found the Prescient story difficult to get through because of the vernacular (was this necessary?) but oddly enough its images will probably stay with me the longest.
Must read.
