书籍简介

★美国《纽约时报》《新闻日报》《时尚先生》及“国家公共电台”年度好书

★2017年瑟伯美国幽默文学奖得主

★美国亚马逊周阅读榜连续在榜，评分高达4.8

★ 囧司徒接班人崔那娃爆笑回忆录 作为美国具影响力的脱口秀节目之一，《囧司徒每日秀》曾在中国收获了一大批忠实粉丝，他宣布辞职后，钦点了南非脱口秀明星特雷弗·诺亚担任继任者。名不见经传的诺亚以自己独特的喜剧风格，在美国内外收获了大批粉丝，并被中国观众亲切称为“崔那娃”。在本书中，小崔发挥了他的幽默天赋，展示了为什么他会被选为《每日秀》的主持人。

★ “生而有罪”的崔那娃讲述贫民窟的成长经历 小崔出生在种族隔离制度下的南非，其父母属于跨种族结合，因此他生下来就犯了罪，再加上他从小生活在贫民窟，似乎注定要走上一条犯罪道路。然而，倔强的小崔与伟大的母亲凭借着幽默、乐观与智慧，摆脱了暴力与贫穷的怪圈，从南非的贫民窟走向了世界的舞台。

★ 多家媒体“年度好书”，普利策奖获得者、《纽约时报》毒舌书评家角谷美智子赞不绝口 南非不只有曼德拉和查理兹·塞隆，本书在讲述作者各种或爆笑、或痛苦、或感人的童年经历时，还将目光投降了南非这块神奇的土地以及反人类的种族隔离制度之恶，充满了浓烈的异域色彩与人文关怀。

美国当红脱口秀《小崔每日秀》主持人特雷弗·诺亚一出生就犯了罪：因为他的父亲是白人，母亲是黑人，而在当时种族隔离的南非，这样的结合属于犯罪，他父母会面临五年有期徒刑的惩罚，诺亚自己也会被送到孤儿院。

为了保护诺亚，他那位勇敢、反叛、幽默、坚强、虔诚信教的母亲，想出了各种极端甚至荒唐的办法，在歧视、贫困、暴力的怪圈中，竭力为他创造了一种正常的生活。而自幼便遗传了母亲性格的诺亚，除了像大多数青少年那样成长外，还需要学会如何 “尴尬”地在一个他本不该存在的世界上生活。

这本回忆录中收集的故事，时而幽默，时而惊险，时而感人，但无一例外都彰显了诺亚惊人的喜剧天赋，以及一位母亲无条件的、无止境的爱。

The host of The Daily Show, Trevor Noah, shares his personal story and the injustices he faced while growing up half black, half white in South Africa under and after apartheid in this New York Times bestselling young readers' adaptation of his adult memoir.

"A piercing reminder that every mad life--even yours--could end up a masterpiece." --JASON REYNOLDS, New York Times bestselling author

We do horrible things to one another because we don't see the person it affects. . . . We don't see them as people.

Trevor Noah, host of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, shares his remarkable story of growing up in South Africa with a black South African mother and a white European father at a time when it was against the law for a mixed-race child to exist. But he did exist--and from the beginning, the often-misbehaved Trevor used his keen smarts and humor to navigate a harsh life under a racist government.

In a country where racism barred blacks from social, educational, and economic opportunity, Trevor surmounted staggering obstacles and created a promising future for himself thanks to his mom's unwavering love and indomitable will.

This honest and poignant memoir adapted from the #1 New York Times bestseller Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood will astound and inspire readers as well as offer a fascinating perspective on South Africa's tumultuous racial history.
