Better get my hands on a few of these. New stamps in Germany celebrating 50-years of Georg-Forster Antarctic station. Of course after the protagonist of my forthcoming book “The Traveller”

We forgot Edinburgh ... here is the complete list of "The Traveller"tour dates for the UK.

Here are the dates for my UK publicity tour for
"The Traveller. The Revolutionary Life of George Forster and his Search for Humanity". Can't wait to tell you all about this man who tried to find what connects us rather than what sets us apart. And he was Humboldt's mentor.
Please come!

We mean the same on but there is a reason why I spell him with an e … which I explain in the book. He was baptised George and was George for first 22 years of his life.

When I followed George Forster’s footsteps through the South Pacific, we made a trailer for „The Traveller“. Forster was a man far ahead of his time. A man who fought racism and who believed in humanity. Book comes out in June 2026 #GeorgeForster #books

Such a wonderful starred review of 'The Traveler' ... 'Readers will be rapt by this immersive recreation of an intellectual awakening’

Thank you and yes, I agree. It’s beautiful.

Thank you!

I can't wait for my readers to read it and to meet the extraordinary George Forster (who BTW was Humboldt's mentor). THE TRAVELLER will be published in the UK, US and Netherlands in June, in Italy in August and at the end of September in Germany. Other countries to follow.

I will never get tired of the moment when I receive the first copy of my book. 5 years... it all starts in my head but now it's really really real. An object with pages, words and illustrations.

Schoß Oberwiederstedt where Novalis was born. Rescued by locals from being razed during GDR times. Today a museum. I had the honour of speaking there yesterday to celebrate 25th anniversary of the Novalis-Stiftung.

I have amazing readers. I did a talk last night in Hermsdorf (it’s a pretty small town not far from Jena with 8000 inhabitants). More than 100 very smart people turned up on a Friday night to hear me talk about the rebellious young Romantics. I do love doing talks in small towns. #booktours

Tomorrow in Hermsdorf near Jena… Fabelhafte Rebellen. 7pm

Thank you!

The Desert Garden at Huntington Botanical Gardens always blows my mind. Every single time.

Goodbye Santa Fe and to the view of the most beautiful office. Very conducive to thinking.

Never expected a mini Sahara in the US #GreatDunes

Thank you for reading it!

Some more photos from my little excursion (back at my desk now)

Mostly I’m working and doing stuff you do when your book is published soon #writers #southwest

The marvellous Maria Popova @mariapopova.bsky.social just sent this amazing blurb for my new book "The Traveler" ... which is so much more than a blurb. I'm thrilled & humbled at the same time. Hallelujah.

THE TRAVELLER is on Waterstones pre-publication promo for 25% off between now and Friday www.waterstones.com/book/the-tra...

Nature can make everything better. I was meant to be on the other side of the world and then this happened (plus 4 shooting stars). I made some good wishes. #signs
