| Re: What Did You Just Finish? David Mitchell's Ghostwritten.
Brilliant. One of my favourite books this year at least. Beautifully and wistfully written, the novel is ten short intertwined stories that revolve around similar themes. Chance, Buddhism, electronic advancement and Eastern mysticism are explorer through the various tales. The book is charming in its description of the glorious scenery (each story focuses on a different location, from Honk Kong, to London, to Clear Island - Ireland). Fantastically woven. I need to read more of his stuff. 4/5.
