Abstract

From David Mitchell, the Booker Prize nominee, award-winning writer and one of the featured authors in 'Granta''s & Best of Young British Novelists 2003& issue, comes his highly anticipated third novel, a work of mind-bending imagination and scope. A reluctant voyager crossing the Pacific in 1850; a disinherited composer blagging a precarious livelihood in between-the-wars Belgium; a high-minded journalist in Governor Reagan's California; a vanity publisher fleeing his gangland creditors; a genetically modified & dinery server& on death-row; and Zachry, a young Pacific Islander witnessing the nightfall of science and civilisation -- the narrators of Cloud Atlas hear each other's echoes down the corridor of history, and their destinies are changed in ways great and small. In his captivating third novel, David Mitchell erases the boundaries of language, genre and time to offer a meditation on humanity's dangerous will to power, and where it may lead us.

Abstract

Simon fait chaque nuit le même rêve dont une femme énigmatique lui livre la clef : il est la réincarnation de l'oncle de Milarepa, le célèbre ermite tibétain du XIe siècle, qui vouait à son neveu une haine inexpiable. Pour sortir du cycle des renaissances, Simon doit raconter l'histoire des deux hommes, s'identifiant à eux au point de mêler leur identité à la sienne. Mais où commence le rêve, où finit le réel ? Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt, dans cette pièce monologue qui est aussi un conte dans l'esprit du bouddhisme tibétain, poursuit son questionnement philosophique : la réalité existe-t-elle en dehors de la perception qu'on en a ?
