Must reread this book. And see the movie. (  ) Maryjane75 | Sep 30, 2023 |  Finished this over the weekend. This is a very imaginative book that really keeps your interest. ( ) lschiff | Sep 24, 2023 | The phenomenon of the "anti-memoir" is not uncommon i.e. an obliterated text consisting almost entirely of cliché and borrowed phrase, obscuring more than revealing its subject, such that, in its grip, the reader wonders whether writing about oneself is even possible. In an analogous sense, this project comes close to the "anti-novel." A felicity for bargain-bin phrases (excepting the occasional apt descriptor) and "deep thematic ideas" (would be happy to be learn there is a deeper consideration of "eternal recurrence" than the occasional wink), which obliterates the text. If an accumulation of six unremarkable made-for-film interchangeable scenarios is really a "novel," the reader wonders whether the novel-as-such is even possible. Something about science-fiction-adjacency appears to generate these kinds of projects. We therefore respect Ted Chiang still more for being one of the few writers who can pull it off. (  ) Joe.Olipo | Sep 19, 2023 | It's been a long time since I've read something I admired so unreservedly - on one level, it's a nailbiting adventure in each of the book's segments, as you care passionately about the outcome of each disparate story, but it's also constructed in such a lucid, intricate way, and the final section (which is the first chronologically) connects so beautifully to the central (which is the last chronologically) that it effortlessly subverts the movement of the characters through time - all is circular. I was quite breathless at the scale and ambition at the end. I definitely see more David Mitchell appearing on my reading list in the very near future... (  ) Helen.Callaghan | Aug 28, 2023 | While I usually like complex books, but this on flopped on me with stories I could not care about. I don't know when I stopped reading, and cannot recall now, years later, anything about this famous book. ( ) mykl-s | Aug 13, 2023 |
 It felt like reading multiple stories from six different authors all on a common theme, yet all these disparate characters connect, their fates intertwine, and their souls drift across time like clouds across a globe. Cloud Atlas is powerful and elegant because of Mitchell's understanding of the way we respond to those fundamental and primitive stories we tell about good and evil, love and destruction, beginnings and ends. He isn't afraid to jerk tears or ratchet up suspense - he understands that's what we make stories for. InnehållerHar bearbetningenPriserPrestigefyllda urvalUppmärksammade listor
Recounts the connected stories of people from the past and the distant future, from a nineteenth-century notary and an investigative journalist in the 1970s to a young man who searches for meaning in a post-apocalyptic world. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
