Über den Autor Trystan Caffcagh
![]()
Born and raised in Belgium, the author - Count of Sealand - moved to Germany after completing his studies in German and Dutch language and literature, together with his qualification as a secondary school teacher, at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KU Leuven). While finding in teaching a vocation he continues to pursue with passion, he has also devoted himself to psychology and psychotherapeutic studies. In his free time, he finds inspiration in literature and photography-those quiet spaces of reflection and imagination that also shape the tone of his writing. Today, he lives in a green refuge in the Ruhr region. Since the early 1980s, poetry and prose have been his constant companions. Under the names Raoul Qayjo, Hertog van Valkenburg, Graaf van Montfoort, and Tristan Kafka, Herzog von Wolf zu Wolfsthal, Graf von Arnsberg & Eberstein, he has published numerous lyrical and prose works in Dutch and German. More recently, under the pseudonym Trystan Caffcagh, Viscount of Frendraught, Baron of Thurnham & Thurnham Castle, Lord of Stowting Castle, Laird of Dunans Castle, he has also embarked on lyrical explorations in English for the first time.
