The many styles of books as well as his other endeavours makes him \u201cinteresting\u201d to say the least. When you have a writer, who amongst his many offerings has books that could qualify as Sci Fi, Fantasy, horror, crime drama, and thrillers, with subjects ranging from killer bears, beings trapped in a train underwater, finding your animal totem and in tonight\u2019s offering a body switch comedy that is one part Disney Freaky Friday and one part Twain Prince and the Pauper with a liberal dash of Jackie Collins thrown in, the reader doesn&#8217;t\u00a0 know what to expect, and that&#8217;s not a bad thing at all in an ostensibly\u00a0 YA novel.\u00a0 His book<a href=\"http:\/\/thorstennesch.com\" target=\"_blank\"> I Am You Am I<\/a> (confusing title isn\u2019t it) is a body swapping comedy but it also allows the author a chance to look at being a teenager in our present times.\u00a0 Equal parts funny and poignant, it made for a very compelling read.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thorsten himself is an interesting person. He writes in both German, his native language and English. He is also a storyteller, photographer, singer and film maker. We never got around to finding out why he moved from Europe to Canada but evidently that&#8217;s another story for another time in the sage of an international storyteller, the chronicle of Thor Nesch.<\/span><\/p>\n<span id=\"pod_audio_1\">&nbsp;<\/span><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-10115-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast502.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast502.mp3\">http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast502.mp3<\/a><\/audio><p><a href='http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast502.mp3'>Download<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/castplayer?castfile=http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast502.mp3&id=10115\" rel=\"0\" class=\"newPlayerWindow\" >Open Player in New Window<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10117\" style=\"width: 345px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/You-body-switch-comedy-ebook\/dp\/B07FSYWRJT\/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1532530541&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=I+am+You+am+I+nesch\" target=\"_blank\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10117\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-10117 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMUMI-ebook-cover-sm.jpg\" alt=\"I am You Am I\" width=\"335\" height=\"537\" srcset=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMUMI-ebook-cover-sm.jpg 335w, http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMUMI-ebook-cover-sm-187x300.jpg 187w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 335px) 100vw, 335px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-10117\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I am You Am I<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-official sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-url=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/?p=10115\" data-text=\"TalkCast 502 - The Princess and The Pauper (updated version)\"  >Tweet<\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><div class=\"fb-share-button\" data-href=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/?p=10115\" data-layout=\"button_count\"><\/div><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><div class=\"pinterest_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fscifisaturdaynight.com%2F%3Fp%3D10115&#038;media=http%3A%2F%2Fscifisaturdaynight.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2021%2F10%2FIMUMI-ebook-cover-sm.jpg&#038;description=TalkCast%20502%20-%20The%20Princess%20and%20The%20Pauper%20%28updated%20version%29\" data-pin-do=\"buttonPin\" data-pin-config=\"beside\"><img src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/pidgets\/pinit_fg_en_rect_gray_20.png\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thor Nesch is by any definition multifaceted .
