Loving all “Mitchelverse” references to Cloud Atlas (with Jasper listening to the Sextet), The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet (ancestor to one of the band members), Ghostwritten (with Bat Segundo and the Mongolian), The Bone Clocks (Gravesend and Aphra Booth). These “cameos” in a way are even more satisfying then the 60’s music world ones, of which I have little knowledge.

Mitchell his writing is a warm bath, I picked this up thinking I needed something I was sure to find enjoyable. The first two chapters full of the serendipitous formation of the titular band do not disappoint but the subject matter is not really my interest so lets see how it develops.
