Memoir 5+/5
Trevor Noah, known most widely for hosting The Daily Show, grew up in South Africa at a time when being born of a Black mother and a White father was illegal. This funny and delightful memoir was a book I couldn’t put down, and was happy to read a second time. Not only are the stories full of the hilarious pranks of childhood, they reveal Noah’s deep love for his mother and family, and the horrific effects of life under apartheid.
