Christian Kranich
Writer / Author
Paris. 1984.
I was sixteen, traveling in Europe. I didn't know then that I would one day become a writer. I only knew that I stopped where others kept walking. That I looked a little longer.

About Christian
Christian Kranich, born in Munich/Germany in 1968, has lived many lives: Ice cream Vendor, Bartender, Flight Attendant, Social Worker, School Principal and AIDS Activist. Today, he works in the pharmaceutical industry, he is coaching leaders & organizations, also blogging on these matter - and writing, of cause.
He lives in Frankfurt am Main/Germany.
For more than thirty years, he has been writing, drawn to the complexity of human encounters and the search for authenticity. His work is shaped by the fractures in human lives and the moments that reveal who we really are.
He is currently working on his first autofictional novel. It follows people to live with the unspeakable. Of hidden longings, of intimacy and shame, of stories we tell ourselves - and those we choose to keep silent.
