Review of 'Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Its approachable funny and endearing. Trevor Noah possesses a very engaging voice and breezes through his story with lightness and intelligence.
Personally, it made the environment of South African life real. That was probably my favourite part of the book, its cheer honesty and straight forwardness.
Totally reccommended, lots of insights about life in South Africa, diversity, racism, family and life in general. Little pearls of wisdom are sprinkled throughout the book along with the witticism and general joyfulness.
Loved it, will probably read again and reccommend.
