A smart, funny, poignant, very modern autobiographical coming-of-age novel, written when the author was sixteen years old. LikeCatcher in the Rye,Crazy appeals to the teenager in us all.
Benni himself is partially paralyzed and a serial failure (he’s been kicked out of four boarding schools in his short life and has just entered his fifth). So he’s a little odd, but he’s cool and he finds other strange boys to hang with. Together they set out to experience what they can: girls, booze, sex, philosophy, drugs, sex, books, music, sex–pretty much everything whatever. And Benni lets us in on "the crazy life" he figures is the only way to deal with the crazy world.
