Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah

5.0

Tagging this as humor on my shelves because of Trevor's profession and his wry wit, but what a childhood-literally born a crime under apartheid, and then navigating a society still very much formed by decades of institutional racism...

Patricia Nombuyiselo Noah is a force, and much of Trevor's life also centers on her- fervently religious, fiercely independent, and constantly fighting so Trevor can break out of the cycle of poverty.

Trevor was also a really naughty kid, and among other things burned a house down. fun times.

Definitely a Good Read, and I hear the audiobook is also great as the author reads his own lifestory.
