Description
Benjamin Lebert introduces himself on the first day at his new school: "Hi, I'm Benjamin Lebert, I'm 16 and a cripple. Just so you know..." He is paralysed down his left side, but nevertheless lives his life to the full as a rebellious schoolboy, smoking, drinking, running away, meeting girls and having sex - and all the while pondering the meaning of life.

Benjamin Lebert was born in Freiberg in 1982 and has lived in Munich since he was eight. He writes articles for the young-adult supplement of Suddeutsche Zeitung, the leading Munich newspaper. This is his first novel, written when he was just 16, and is largely based on his own life as he struggled to make an adventure out of his adolescence.
