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

5.0

'Born a Crime' is a collection of eighteen personal stories tells the story of a mischievous young boy growing into a restless young man as he struggles to find his place in a world where he was never supposed to exist.

Born a Crime is equally the story of that young man's fearless, rebellious and fervently religious mother - a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence and abuse.

Who knew when Trevor Noah would serve me a book of short stories I'd take a big gulp and immensely enjoy the succinct, funny, writing style. I. LOVED. THIS. FREAKING. BOOK !
