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.

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.

I found it pretty sad and not engaging
Although an interesting read, I ultimately found it pretty sad. The conclusion was also pretty predictable. Mixed feelings

Good ambition but leaves you wanting
Loved the storytelling and performance of the readers. However the story falls short in focusing on less interesting parts of the story and not providing any satisfying answers to other parts.

A different take on pandemic stories
I liked the different characters but felt there was too little time spent on the three from different periods. They were well enough written that I wanted to spend more time with them. The story came together neatly at the end but I cared less about the time traveller and found him a bit naive and harder to believe in.

Another astoundingly good read. Where should I go now though. Books this good are difficult to find.
