“I think the story is the most ancient form of human entertainment.” -David Mitchell
I’ve been thinking about Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell a lot lately. I haven’t read the book yet, but I loved the movie. It definitely had an impact on me and made me rethink a lot of things that go on in the different systems that make up our world.
Here’s a little description from Good Reads
“A postmodern visionary who is also a master of styles of genres, 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. The result is brilliantly original fiction as profound as it is playful. Now in his new novel, David Mitchell explores with daring artistry fundamental questions of reality and identity.”
