Rate this book
«‹Cloud Atlas› ist lustig, spannend, hanebüchen, philosophisch, klamottig, außerweltlich und postapokalyptisch, ein irres Ding von einem Film, der zum Schauen, Hören und auch Lachen einlädt.» Verena Lueken in der «Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung» Die kongeniale Filmversion von David Mitchells als unverfilmbar geltendem Weltbestseller «Der Wolkenatlas» haben drei Kinovisionäre in kreativer Allianz gemeinsam geschaffen: Tom Tykwer, der Regisseur von «Lola rennt» und «Das Parfum», sowie Lana und Andy Wachowski, die Schöpfer der «Matrix»- Trilogie. Ihr Film wartet mit einem einmaligen Staraufgebot auf: Tom Hanks, Halle Berry und Ben Whishaw gehören ebenso zum Ensemble wie Hugo Weaving, Jim Sturgess sowie Susan Sarandon und Hugh Grant. Jeder dieser Schauspieler begegnet uns in mehreren Rollen und verschiedenen Jahrhunderten. «Cloud Atlas» ist ein Epos voller Dramatik, Action und Romantik, das die Grenzen von Zeiten, Generationen und Genres sprengt. Dieses Buch enthält das komplette Drehbuch sowie 350 Fotos aus dem Film.

This is the Cloud Atlas Sextet as it is described in the book. There are six different stories we read half of as they go from the past to the future and then are finished as we come back from the future and into the past. I really connected with four of the stories and came to dislike the narrator of two of the stories. I must admit I listened to this book as I was driving back and forth to work each day and my like or dislike may be influenced by the narration, but the characters themselves are what turned me off to their part of the storyline.

Reading this book was a unique experience. The first half was great. Each separate story had me interested and invested. Then it went off the rails and never found its way back. It ended up being a disappointment.

This book reminds me of string theory and particle theory as we know what it implies to photons.
