Born a Crime

Trevor Noah
Goodreads  
Martinus  
John Murray • 2017

The compelling, inspiring, (often comic) coming-of-age story of Trevor Noah, set during the twilight of apartheid and the tumultuous days of freedom that followed. One of the comedy world's brightest ...new voices, Trevor Noah is a light-footed but sharp-minded observer of the absurdities of politics, race and identity, sharing jokes and insights drawn from the wealth of experience acquired in his relatively young life. As host of the US hit show The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, he provides viewers around the globe with their nightly dose of biting satire, but here Noah turns his focus inward, giving readers a deeply personal, heartfelt and humorous look at the world that shaped him. Noah was born a crime, son of a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother, at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents' indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the first years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, take him away. A collection of eighteen personal stories, Born a Crime 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 that ultimately threatens her own life.

Noah Trevor: Born a Crime // Sonda do africkej duše

Dokážete si predstaviť, že váš rodný list je zároveň aj dôkazovým materiálom spáchaného trestného činu vašej matky? Nie? Trevor Noah o tom vie svoje!Trevor spomína na svoje detstvo v Afrike v čase apartheidu - tvrdej rasovej segregácie. V tejto dobe (1948-1990) bol pohlavný styk medzi bielou a čiernou rasou ilegálny a dieťa splodené v zmiešanom vzťahu sa posudzovalo ako kriminálny čin.[...]
