Дэвид Митчелл Books

Это книга-загадка. Структуру этого блестящего романа - поразительно виртуозного, но в то же время безмерно человечного - можно уподобить матрешке

An alternate cover for this edition can be found here and here. The narrators hear their echoes in history and change their destinies in ways great and small, in a study of humanity's dangerous will to power. A reluctant voyager crosses the Pacific in 1850. A disinherited composer gatecrashes in between-wars Belgium. A vanity publisher flees gangland creditors. Others are a journalist in Governor Reagan’s California, and genetically-modified dinery server on death-row. Finally, a young Pacific Islander witnesses the nightfall of science and civilization.
