Dirk Brall, influencing youth in Germany!
Dirk Brall is the author of "Jacob's Way" (or "Jakobs Weg") published in 2007. This book attempts to re-awaken the narrative of the Biblical character Jacob through an "ornate writing structure with telling perspectives and simple sentences which carry the reader forward on a path which leaves you entranced by his life's pilgrimage!"
Born in Aachen, Germany - Brall has worked as a carpenter, studied cultural studies, as well as creative writing. Working currently as a writer/storyteller he is involved in the publication "FROH!". He also directs a program for youth at a converted farm.
Distinguished for his writing he is currently lecturing and giving workshops around Germany. His recent appearances included a presentation and reading from a new piece (soon to be published) at the Berlin Projekt's Kollaborativ 09 Art and Faith conference.
