How David Mitchell connected Utopia Avenue to his previous books
Christian Holub
In one sense, David Mitchell published a new novel this year, titled
Utopia Avenue. But in another sense, it was just the latest installment in the great meta-novel that Mitchell has been writing for his whole career.
Some of Mitchell s novels are very focused on a specific time and place.
Utopia Avenue, for instance, is the story of an eponymous 60s British rock band, while 2010 s
The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet is set entirely in the Japanese city of Nagasaki in the late 18th century, when the Tokugawa shogunate strictly limited contact with Europeans. Other Mitchell novels, like ....
