Lives separated by time and space have collided, and an exiled Englishman, a writer trapped far from home, and a girl destined to die too young, have each glimpsed a world that is not their own.

Reseñas de la Crítica

It is<b> heaven to be immersed in the waters of Mandel's imagination</b>, she is always able to see past the present moment to the futures it contains and the past that informed it. Her perspective is <b>so wise, so graceful, so rich</b> and - despite everything - comforting. I loved <i>Sea of Tranquility</i> (Naomi Alderman, Women's Prize-winning author of The Power)

<b>A spiralling, transportive triumph </b>of storytelling - sci-fi with soul (Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies)

An <b>ambitious time-travelling panorama</b> of pandemics and parallel worlds

<b>Even more boldly imagined than <i>Station Eleven</i></b>. <b>Exciting</b> to read, relevant, and satisfying.

Readers of Mandel’s <i>Station Eleven</i> and <i>The Glass Hotel</i> will not be disappointed by her latest, <b>a generous and elegant novel</b> about art and family and time travel

<b>Ingenious </b>. . . <b>Hugely ambitious</b> in scope, yet also intimate and written with a <b>graceful and beguiling fluency</b> . . . It conveys the vertiginous sense of a reality that transcends a single existence and feels simultaneously <b>poignant, celebratory and uncanny</b>

A time travel <b>epic</b>: a<b> soaring story of connections</b> through the ages. Mandel has this knack for grounding science fiction in the here and now, something that fills her writing with <b>profound and life-affirming humanity</b>

An <b>inventive, haunting, and tender time-travel story</b> that underscores the importance and resilience of art

<b>The four narrators who deliver Mandel’s newest novel create a mesmerizing listening experience full of time shifts.</b> Kirsten Potter shines as an author on a book tour at the beginning of a 2200s pandemic; her increasingly worried observations hit close to home. Dylan Moore brings a perfect mix of malaise and inertia to her characterization of a young woman living in 2020 New York. John Lee effortlessly transports listeners from British Columbia in 1918 to the moon colonies of the twenty-fifth century. Arthur Morey’s beautiful, throaty narration of the final section, about a man from the moon colonies whose life is changed forever by a mysterious government job, is haunting and familiar. These interlocking storylines offer a poignant and surprising exploration of love, art, and the beauty of everyday life.

Beautifully written- the matrix without the darkness

Love the storytelling - poignant and intelligent . Thanks Obama for the recommendation . Highly recommended - different narrators also add to the enjoyment .

Time travel deliciousness

So I love time travel stories, how everything interlocks and is revealed, casting new light on earlier chapters. This book satisfies that itch. It is intricate and lovely. The characters are subtly drawn and compelling. I could have listened to hours more of this novel. I liked how the Moon Colonies never were overshadowed by sci-fi wowness, but were revealed through the characters' dilemmas. This is a really satisfying read/listen. Top marks to all!
