SOLO

In celebration of the 70th anniversary of Nicolas Bouvier’s stay in Galle, radio host Adrien Krause revisits the writer’s remarkable journey by car from Geneva to Sri Lanka. Focusing on Bouvier’s book The Scorpion Fish and accompanied by exclusive photographs taken on his journey, this event explores Bouvier’s challenging experience of physical and emotional hardship in Galle. An opportunity to rediscover the timeless themes of travel, encounter, and introspection in Bouvier’s work – and a tribute to an author whose writing continues to inspire lovers of literature, history, and cultural exploration.
