Benjamin Lebert

Benjamin Lebert (born 9 January 1982) is a German writer. He was born in Freiburg. His first novel, ''Crazy'', was published when Lebert was only 16 years old. The international bestseller about a handicapped teenage rebel has been licensed to 33 nations and was made into a feature film by Hans-Christian Schmid (see here), and has drawn comparisons to Jerome Salinger's ''Catcher in the Rye''. In 2003, Lebert published a second novel, ''Der Vogel ist ein Rabe'' (''The Bird Is a Raven'').
