Interesting story about South Africa and the culture there. It was interesting to read about how different cultures interact with each other. I really found his mother to be extremely interesting and the way she interacts with Noah.

Born a Crime is a wonderfully told and powerfully moving account of Trevor Noah's childhood and youth growing up in South Africa during the end of apartheid and the early post-apartheid years. But even more so, it is a tribute to his Mom, whose strength and faith made Mr. Noah who he is. This inspirational, very moving story is a must read.

Life in South Africa from the end of apartheid to approximately now written by a man who makes his living with words. Definitely worth time and money spent.
