Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell
5.0

It was a difficult read. Five stories stop on a cliffhanger. Only the sixth one is complete and then the five stories are narrated in the reverse order. Its difficult to get adjusted to the stories as every story has a different style. It moves from past to future
1. Pacific journal of Adam Ewing
2. Letters from Zedelghem
3. Luisa Rey mystery
4. Timothy Cavendish
5. Orison of Sonmi
6. Sloosha Crossing
The 6th story being a post apocalyptic story
David Mitchell is a Brilliant writer. Story telling on this level is unimaginable. Then weaving the story into the next one is ingenious!
