This is the first of Emily St. John Mandel’s works I have read and I’m sure it won’t be the last either. She is an absolute treasure of a writer. Her prose is eloquent but not overly so which made it simple to finish the book quickly despite its somewhat sci-fi themes.
What I ended up not enjoying was that there were many unfleshed out interested ideas and at least a major unresolved question at the end. The answer to one of which was essentially ‘it doesnt matter, a life lived is a life lived’, but it does matter to me, the reader.

Grann expertly meshes the first hand accounts with an overarching tale of “the human condition” to really give you a sense of who these people were, how they felt, why they acted in certain ways, and in no way casts blame or bias. It’s a fantastic tale, and you can understand why this story still enthralls people.
