Summary
The instant Sunday Times bestseller, Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel investigates the idea of parallel worlds and possibilities, and plays with the very line along which time should run.
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. Travelling through the centuries, between colonies on the moon and an ever-changing Earth, together their lives will solve a mystery that will make you question everything you thought you knew to be true.
From the award-winning author of Station Eleven.

Fantastic story line
Not my usual read / listen but was immediately immersed in the story and the character narration. The
multiple sorry tellers absolutely added to the enjoyment. Fully deserves the acclaim and awards this book has revived, best start again.

Believable time travel, great story
Really enjoyed this. I like the way the different timelines come together and the decision to use different narrators for each works very well.

Another clever, poignant and mesmerising story of stories
It isn’t easy to have such a personal style and not repeat oneself, especially with characters and stories bleeding from one novel to the next. St. John Mandel manages this and more. Through little scene snippets, the listener pieces together a compelling story that acts as the context for the myriad stories we glimpse into.

Worth a listen
The story is good if a little predictable. The performances of the readers is very good. And it left me wishing I had gotten to know each of the characters a little more.

Brilliant book
Nicely read and very compelling story. Very much enjoyed it including the telling of it. The first narrator is slightly slower and stranger tempo than I would like but in fact related to the time the story set and got used to it.

Haunting
I very much liked the way the different threads of the story come together. Curiously satisfying. All the readers did well, giving a good sense of their different characters. I know I will continue thinking about this book for some time.

top notch, carved deep.
First, terrific performances. But the book? Incredible while crazily credible. I suspect it's going to be running through my head for weeks. Read it but I'd go back to (unrelated and standalone) Station Eleven and read everything from there. Thanks ESJM.
