David Mitchell: Cloud Atlas

book.jpgCloud Atlas (Random House), by the extravagantly gifted David Mitchell, traces the consequences of greed from the beginnings of imperialism far into the future and the end of civilization. It's a wild ride with a new generation's wunderkind. (The film, a science fiction drama based on the novel, is now playing at theaters.)
