About this listen

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.

Critic reviews

It is heaven to be immersed in the waters of Mandel's imagination, she is always able to see past the present moment to the futures it contains and the past that informed it. Her perspective is so wise, so graceful, so rich and - despite everything - comforting. I loved Sea of Tranquility (Naomi Alderman, Women's Prize-winning author of The Power)
A spiralling, transportive triumph of storytelling - sci-fi with soul (Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies)

So I love time travel stories, how everything interlocks and is revealed, casting new light on earlier chapters. This book satisfies that itch. It is intricate and lovely. The characters are subtly drawn and compelling. I could have listened to hours more of this novel. I liked how the Moon Colonies never were overshadowed by sci-fi wowness, but were revealed through the characters' dilemmas. This is a really satisfying read/listen. Top marks to all!

Time travel deliciousness
