akva 's review for:

Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell
3.0

I had high expectations for this one, I realy did.

I loved the premise - 6 stories told by 6 different people in different times. Loved the idea of babushkas and how the stories unfolded, loved everything and nothing special.

I just can't put my finger to it.

I appreciate Mitchell's writing skills and how you feel like actual 6 different persons wrote those stories. I loved the main theme - greed, poverty, corporations, loved the characters...
And still, something didn't click the right way, I guess.
