Such an enjoyable read. Sea of Tranquility surprised my with its plot, its sci-fi but literary sensibilities and the beauty of its writing.
This is a book involving time travel, and a sci-fi novel for people who don't like traditional sci-fi. There's something reminiscent of Ursula Le Guin or Ted Chiang but of course there's a contemporaneity that can only come from a Covid-19-era publication. There's a humanity and philosophical beauty to St John Mandel's prose that is quietly moving and deeply satisfying.
