Cloud Atlas

Modern classic, a monumental masterpiece that, like many of Mitchell's other books, made it to the shortlist of the Booker Prize. In 2012, the novel was adapted into a film by Tom Tykwer and the Wachowski brothers (starring Tom Hanks,... Halle Berry, Hugh Grant, Jim Broadbent, Ben Whishaw, Hugo Weaving, Susan Sarandon), becoming, with a budget of over 100 million dollars, the most expensive independent film in cinema history.
«Cloud Atlas» is like a mirrored labyrinth, where six voices intertwine and layer upon one another: a 19th-century notary returning to the US from Australia; a young composer forced to sell his soul and body in Europe between the world wars; a journalist in California in the 1970s uncovering a corporate conspiracy; a small-time publisher—our contemporary—who managed to hit the jackpot with a gangster's autobiography and is on the run from creditors; a clone servant from a fast-food enterprise in Korea—a country of victorious cyberpunk; and a Hawaiian goat herder at the twilight of civilization.
