Born a Crime – Trevor Noah (ISBN: 9781770106598)
Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood is the bestselling memoir by Trevor Noah, comedian and former host of The Daily Show. The book recounts Noah’s experiences growing up in apartheid and post‑apartheid South Africa as the mixed‑race son of a Black Xhosa mother and a white Swiss father—an existence that was literally “born a crime” under apartheid laws.

This edition (ISBN: 9781770106598), published by Jonathan Ball Publishers, blends humour, heartbreak, and sharp social commentary. Through vivid storytelling, Noah explores themes of identity, resilience, race, family, and survival, offering readers both laughter and profound insight into South Africa’s history and culture.
