Description

Trevor Noah shares his remarkable story of growing up in South Africa, with a black South African mother and a white European father at a time when it was against the law for a mixed-race child like him to exist. Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood is a compelling memoir that blends drama, comedy and tragedy to depict the day-to-day trials that turned a boy into a young man. In a country where racism barred blacks from social, educational and economic opportunity, Trevor surmounted staggering obstacles and created a promising future for himself, thanks to his mom's unwavering love and indomitable will. This honest perspective on South Africa's racial history is both fascinating and thought-provoking, and will astound and inspire young readers looking to improve their own lives. By sharing his story, Trevor Noah provides a unique insight into the challenges faced by those growing up in a society marked by racism and inequality.
