Time travel, global journeys, leaps across epochs-the author takes us on a captivating voyage through time and space, blending historical events with personal adventures across diverse latitudes and longitudes. The narrative unfolds primarily in reverse chronological order, culminating in a contemporary twist: it becomes a quest for the self through time, a borderless affirmation of existence.
Characters drift in and out at a relaxed, almost whimsical pace, accompanying the unconventional voyager on his explorations. There's a bohemian laissez-faire, a lightness of being that permeates the story. The freedom to choose where and how to begin or end one's identity-and life-without losing oneself reflects the spirit of our times, and hints at the much-discussed embrace of living in the here and now.
Markus Michael trained as a physician in Switzerland, but instead of treating individual patients, he dedicated his career to humanitarian work in war-torn regions. For decades, he worked on the front lines of conflict, delivering aid and grappling with public health policy amid chaos and upheaval. His firsthand experience of history in motion has long fuelled his passion for understanding how the present has been shaped by the past.
Earlier this year, he published a thought-provoking book on history: The Unwritten Chronicles of Western Civilizations' Greatest Confrontations - An Imaginary Walk through an Alternate History.
Markus Michael lives in São Paulo, Brazil.
