David Mitchell
The dazzling novel from the bestselling author of CLOUD ATLAS.
Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2014
Run away, one drowsy summer's afternoon, with Holly Sykes: wayward teenager, broken-hearted rebel and unwitting pawn in a titanic, hidden conflict.
Over six decades, the consequences of a moment's impulse unfold, drawing an ordinary woman into a world far beyond her imagining. And as life in the near future turns perilous, the pledge she made to a stranger may become the key to her family's survival . . .
(P) 2020 Hodder & Stoughton Ltd©2014 David Mitchell

Recensioni della critica
600 pages of metafictional shenanigans in relentlessly brilliant prose . . . Death is at the heart of this novel. And there lies its depth and darkness, bravely concealed with all the wit and sleight of hand and ventriloquistic verbiage and tale-telling bravura of which Mitchell is a master . . . It's a whopper of a story (Ursula K. Le Guin)
Fantastical, ambitious, bold and exuberant (Viv Groskop, Books of the Year)
A mind-spinning, genre-splicing time-travelling epic
An extraordinary piece of storytelling (Books of the Year)
A return to the exuberance and genre-hopping of Cloud Atlas, and a proper page-turner (Stephanie Merritt, Books of the Year)
Combines fantastic inventiveness with depth and heart (Books of the Year)
One of the most entertaining and thrilling novels I've read in a long time . . . an extraordinary fun house of a novel (Meg Wolitzer)
A ludicrously ambitious, unstoppably clever epic told through a chorus of diverse narrators that is both outrageous in scope and meticulous in execution
Great story, great words, all good
Great fun . . . a tour de force
Mitchell is one of the most electric writers alive. To open a Mitchell book is to set forth on an adventure . . . In his latest novel, The Bone Clocks, Mitchell has spun his most far-flung tale yet . . . Strange and magical
Mind-bendingly ambitious . . . The force of [Mitchell's] storytelling makes The Bone Clocks a joy
Mitchell is a superb storyteller . . . One of the reasons he is such a popular and critically lauded writer is that he combines both the giddy, freewheeling ceaselessness of the pure storyteller with the grounded realism of the humanist. There's something for everyone, traditionalist or postmodernist, realist or fantasist
Magical . . . [it] perfectly illustrates the idea that we're all the heroes of our own lives as well as single cogs in a much larger and more beautiful mechanism
Deeply meaningful . . . The Bone Clocks has everything you might expect to find in a David Mitchell novel: Great characters in settings far-flung over space and time, all tied together by ambitious ideas and gorgeous writing
A sweeping epic . . . that, like Cloud Atlas, spans the ages and tinkers with the hidden gears of human history
The overwhelming impression is of an author at the height of his powers precisely because of a deep and intuitive understanding and curiosity of what it is about to live a life as a human being.
Wild, funny, terrifying . . . a slipstream masterpiece all its own
Unmissable
David Mitchell was my favourite author at college - I raved about The Bone Clocks to everyone I met. . . Mitchell's writing is just as magical for me now as it was back then. (R. F. Kuang)
