描述

Trevor Noah's journey is one of resilience and humor, framed within the complex landscape of apartheid South Africa. Growing up as the son of a black mother and a white father, he navigated a world where his very existence was deemed illegal. This unique perspective shapes his storytelling, revealing the absurdities of a society divided by race and inequality.

Through a series of vivid anecdotes, Trevor reflects on his childhood that was marked by laughter amidst struggle. He paints a vivid picture of his mischievous exploits, his mother’s fierce determination, and the indelible bond between them. Every tale serves as a testament to the power of love and the spirit of defiance against oppressive circumstances.

Trevor's wit shines through as he offers profound insights into identity and belonging, all while keeping the reader entertained. His ability to find humor in harsh realities not only captivates but also invites reflection on the broader themes of heritage and acceptance.

I loved this book. Written with a mix of comedy and gravity, the tales of Trevor Noah's childhood are a fascinating look at what it was like to grow up under apartheid as the son of a African woman and a Swedish man. I enjoyed the history, political commentary, childhood stories, and even the notes on domestic violence in the story, but the highlight of this book is the respect and love Trevor Noah clearly has for his mother. She comes through as the shining star of the story - one could even argue there is more of her in this book than Trevor himself. I would love a sequel where we follow Trevor on his journey of getting into comedy/being a stand up comedian, what it was like to see the world and eventually getting the job at the Daily Show too.
