Ben’s Reviews > Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood > Status Update

Loving it so far. Having read Nelson Mandela's autobiography, this makes for great additional knowledge from a true insider who was both free while Mandela was not (though not for long, Trevor Noah was born in 1984 and Mandela was released in 1990) and also lived the life of a poverty-stricken commoner while Mandela became near royalty upon his release. It's a very different, often comical, but real viewpoint.
