**Pre-order UTOPIA AVENUE, the spectacular new novel from David Mitchell.**


The Sunday Times Number One Bestseller, from the author of CLOUD ATLAS and THE BONE CLOCKS.

Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2010

Be transported to a place like no other: a tiny, man-made island in the bay of Nagasaki, for two hundred years the sole gateway between Japan and the West. Here, in the dying days of the 18th-century, a young Dutch clerk arrives to make his fortune. Instead he loses his heart.

Step onto the streets of Dejima and mingle with scheming traders, spies, interpreters, servants and concubines as two cultures converge. In a tale of integrity and corruption, passion and power, the key is control - of riches and minds, and over death itself.

批評家のレビュー

Spectacularly accomplished and thrillingly suspenseful . . . it brims with rich, involving and affecting humanity
An achingly romantic story of forbidden love . . . Mitchell's incredible prose is on stunning display . . . [it] confirms Mitchell as one of the more fascinating and fearless writers alive (Dave Eggers)
That rare thing - a novel which actually deserves the accolade "tour de force" (Kamila Shamsie, Books of the Year)
Genres merge and interact like the shimmering colours of a kaleidoscope . . . one story contains multiplicities, woven together with golden thread . . . Dive in and lose yourself in a world of incredible scope, originality and imaginative brilliance (Katy Guest)
Compared with almost everything being written now, it is vertiginously ambitious - and brilliant . . . He can write as thrillingly about large-scale events as he can about the tiny details of the private world . . . turned one way this novel is a thriller with a glittering seam of a love story running through it (or is it the other way round?); turned another, it is a sumptuous historical novel on the collision of cultures caught at a particular crossroads of history (Neel Mukherjee)
Stunning (Books of the Year)
As compelling as it is strange, the novel is testament to the originality of Mitchell's vision and his great craftiness as a storyteller
A heady potion of betrayal, love, superstition, power politics and murder . . . And all this in the most extraordinary prose
However densely charted and richly sketched, this sumptuous imbroglio never drags . . . Mitchell flexes his prose virtuosity. More than before, those muscles do the heart's work
Moving, thoughtful and unexpectedly funny (Books of the Year)
Hugely enjoyable . . . It cracks along, holding us in suspense from the beginning
Masterpieces make their own rules, and this book is definitely one of them
David Mitchell is back with a bang . . . superb
Ambitious and fascinating . . . Comparisons to Tolstoy are inevitable, and right on the money
A pitch-perfect masterclass in the art, and magic, of narrative (Books of the Year)
A marvel - entirely original among contemporary British novels, revealing its author as, surely, the most impressive fictional mind of his generation
A formidable marvel
Extraordinarily entertaining and well-realised (A. S. Byatt)
For a tour de force, it's surprisingly nimble, emotionally complex and simply unforgettable (Stuart Kelly)
Almost every sentence shimmers with precise, opaque and brilliantly realised writing . . . An historical novel on a deliberately grand scale, it never loses its quiet intimacy
The details are fascinating and the prose beautiful . . . simply magnificent
Sharp, hilarious, exhilarating stuff. Utterly enjoyable
