I'm the author of six books. An exile from Cuba - and now from Facebook. If you're curious why my latest book has been called "fresh" and "gonzo," my website is: https://raulramos.com

Mark Kelly: "The message he sent a couple days ago was he declared that loyalty to the Constitution is now punishable by death. Those are serious words coming from the president. He's trying to intimidate us. But I'm not going to be intimidated."

The narrative structure of CLOUD ATLAS is absolutely brilliant -- and the narrative voice perfectly matches the period and setting. It can be a challenging read for some but well worth the effort.
