My book, Cloud Atlas, would be considered a mixture of genres in each story. Overall thought I think it would be considered Fantasy...I guess. I really couldn't tell you what type of book my book is, I could tell you that it is a really good book? There are different stories about different things that all tie together with meanings and metaphors so, I can't exactly pin point what it is. There is a story about love, mystery, futuristic stuff, and everything in between. One story is about a relationship between two men and one of them wants to be a composer but ends up killing himself. The man that did not kill himself is part of another story which is a somewhat like a mystery because of documents that are being hid by a corporation. The man is killed by a mercenary hired by the government and the mystery continues with a reporter following the paper trail. Another story is about a publisher fleeing from thugs and winds up in a old persons home, he and newly found friends try to break out of the place. That was one of my favorite ones, it was quite hilarious. Another story is about a Korean girl that has a revelation about the world they are living in and dies for her cause (also a love story bit in there). The same girl is a god in another story to people that have a survived an apocalyptic situation and are living on a remote island. The last story is about a man sailing with a doctor and a stow away slave but, the slave is a skilled seamen. The man is sick but the doctor on board is actually poisoning him to take all this fortune. So there they all are, although I dumb'd them all down to a sentence, that is the basic idea or genre of each story.
