Trevor Noah’s Born a Crime is a brilliant and witty memoir that illustrates an unbreakable bond between mother and son. Noah’s poignant prose creates a startling portrayal of his experience growing up in South Africa during apartheid. This memoir, while filled with Noah’s quick wit and humor, is a thought-provoking and insightful look into the life of a comedian who, quite literally, was born a crime.
