Cloud AtlasThis fall I've been reading David Mitchell's 'Cloud Atlas', bought in London in April 2011. It's a multiple frame story set in different time periods. Historical, futuristic and everything in between. With links between the different stories. A feat of ingenuity but sometimes the links and technical writing skills are too obvious too my taste. Other than that, a good read. By the time I had finished the book, the movie based on it was shown in cinemas, so Maarten and I went to see it. One of its directors is our favorite, Tom Tykwer.
