Review of 'Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
The book starts with a very light tone despite the circumstances. It paints a happy picture. The last chapter hits like a punch in the gut and tbh I cried while reading it. Trevors memories are vivid, beautiful and help to understand another country maybe a little bit better. I've already enjoyed him as a talkshow hoast and his thoughts, but this book makes me appreciate him even more.
Definitely recommended, even if you don't know or care for Trevor Noah. Just a great memoir.
