"Loved it! "

Review by Lily on 12th February, 2011

Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is a really clever and interesting novel. it follows 9 vastly different characters from a banker to a terrorist and everybody in between. How they all link together is quite clever.

I took it away on my Xmas holiday and enjoyed it immensely. So if you need a book to fill in time at the beach take this one.

Description

Winner of the Mail on Sunday/John Llewellyn Rhys Prize. A magnificent achievement and an engrossing experience, David Mitchell's first novel announced the arrival of one of the most exciting writers of the twenty-first century. An apocalyptic cult member carries out a gas attack on a rush-hour metro, but what links him to a jazz buff in downtown Tokyo? Or to a Mongolian gangster, a woman on a holy mountain who talks to a tree, and a late night New York DJ? Set at the fugitive edges of Asia and Europe, Ghostwritten weaves together a host of characters, their interconnected destinies determined by the inescapable forces of cause and effect.
