About the Book

Are you where you thought you’d be at this stage of your life?

No? Then this book is for you.

“You Are Not Here” explores the timeless concept that life’s journey is its own reward.

This collection of stories, reflections, and inspirations, partly autobiographical and inspired by the beloved poem Ithaka, is for those who have not yet arrived. It is an invitation to discover the beauty in the struggle, find hope in the quest, and embrace growth as you move forward on your own life’s journey.

Written by Michael Albanese and beautifully illustrated by JJ Richards, this book is a love letter to dreamers. It offers an approachable and encouraging reminder that, wherever you are on this adventure called life, you are exactly where you are supposed to be.

Hope your road is a long one.
But don’t hurry the journey at all.
