Cloud Atlas. Mitchell D.

Modern classic, a monumental masterpiece, which entered, like many other Books of Mitchell, to the shorts of the Buker Prize. In 2012, the novel was filmed by Tom Teakver and the Vachovski brothers (in roles Tom Hanks, Hall Berry, Hugh Grant, Jim Brodbent, Ben Wishow, Hugo Weezing, Susan Sarandon), becoming more than 100 million dollars with the most expensive independent film in History of cinema.

“Cloud Atlas” is like a mirror maze in which six votes erasure, layering at each other: a notary of the mid -nineteenth century, returning to the United States from Australia; a young composer forced to trade soul and body in Europe between world wars; journalists in the California of the 1970s, revealing a corporate conspiracy; a small publisher - our contemporary who managed to tear the bank on a gangster autobiography “Kasteta” and running from creditors; Clone services from a fast food in Korea-the country of the winning cyberpunk; and Hawaiian goat at the sunset of civilization.
