Maggiori informazioni sul libro
It begins as a normal sailing trip when Sebastian Kummer sets off in February from France to deliver a new catamaran from the Atlantic coast to Turkey. With changing crews, the economics professor plans to sail to Göcek and then bring another ship to Croatia. However, when the pandemic breaks out, his crew abandons him, and a 90-day odyssey filled with anxiety and hope begins. Countries close their borders, and Kummer finds himself alone on the vast sea. In Greece, he is chased away by the coast guard with a machine gun, and in Turkey, he hides for weeks in remote coves he calls his "no man's land." The professor becomes a pirate, hunted and outlawed, yet he embraces his fate with boundless optimism and self-irony. The "most beautiful quarantine in the world" begins. A mysterious intermediary appears, with questionable connections to diplomatic circles. Kummer's story touches many; he gives dozens of interviews from his hideout and makes headlines. Journalist Jens Brambusch has analyzed Kummer's notes and diary entries to provide personal insights into this extraordinary odyssey, which tells of sailing adventures and the struggle against loneliness.
