    This collection of critical essays, the outcome of the first international conference on David Mitchell’s writing, focuses on his first three novels – Ghostwritten (1999), number9dream (2001) and Cloud Atlas (2004) – to provide a sustained analysis of Mitchell’s complex narrative techniques and the literary, political and cultural implications of his early work. The essays cover topics ranging from narrative structure, genre and the Bildungsroman to representations of Japan, postmodernism, the construction of identity, utopia, science fiction and postcolonialism. Sarah Dillon is Lecturer in Contemporary Fiction in the School of English at the University of St Andrews. She is author of The Palimpsest: Literature, Criticism, Theory (2007) and has published essays on Jacques Derrida, Elizabeth Bowen, H. D., Michel Faber, Maggie Gee and David Mitchell.
