Here's what we're reading this month Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel
About the Book
A novel composed of multiple overlapping storylines, marked by four distinct time periods. In 1912, Edwin St. Andrew travels from Britain to Canada, where he lives in exile. In 2020, Mirella learns of the death of her estranged friend Vincent. In 2203, Olive Llewellyn travels from the moon colonies to Earth on a book tour to promote her newly released novel amid a devastating pandemic. In 2401, detective Gaspery Roberts investigates a mysterious anomaly that features in the previous three timelines.
