How to find someone in Australia?

Can you contact his publisher?

I'm going rto give it a try, but I'm not sure they really know him. It looks like he's used an online service which helps authors publish their own books inexpensively.

I was thinking that too, but since the book was self-published...


Maybe HE'S a stalker!

Actually, checking out his bio, it looks like he visited Norway between 1965 and 1970, and I was born in 1969 in Mexico, where we stayed for one year after that.

So as much as it would be fun to think that he'd met me by chance and decided I was the perfect model for the lovely and intelligent mathematician in his book (I'm not kidding!) it's not very likely.

Or when do authors usually decide on names for their characters? I would think early on, because it would be awfully hard to write about someone without giving them a name.

I'm overthinking this.

It is such an interesting situation I can see your interest in it! My name is quite unusual as well, if a Google search is done with my full name, I am the only result that comes up. Indeed, in North America there are only about 20 people who turn up if you search for my last name. I certainly understand why\how this got your attention, and how cool is it that your namesake is such a cool character!

You could write your own series of stories with alternate endings about how this could have happened
