More Cloud Atlas

Okay so I am halfway through the book and I am now thinking how the heck did they do the movie. I will finish the book hopefully by this weekend and then my daughter and I are going to watch the movie. I am not sure how it did in the box office, but if the book is any indicator, I am sure the movie was confusing, making me think it did not do well at the theaters. It seems that they are a bunch of little stories but they are all interconnected, hence Cloud Atlas, time travel is not apparent at first but I am not sure I would call it time travel. I love the use of areas that we know, and peoples that we know to ground the story to earth.
