Trevor Noah was born in South Africa before the elimination of apartheid, a system of institutionalized racial segregation. Because his father is white and his mother is Black, he was born a “crime.” Though he was classified as colored and suffered from all kinds of inequality, he grew up under the protection of his mother, who was brave, pious, rebellious, and optimistic. Thanks to that, Noah grew up like a normal teenager without being negatively influenced by his social environment. Moreover, he inherited his mother’s nature and took control of his life.

Trevor Noah is the current host of The Daily Show, a popular American satirical news program. He was born in 1984 in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The first thing I learned about having money was that it gives you choices. People don’t want to be rich. They want to be able to choose. The richer you are, the more choices you have. That is the freedom of money.
We spend so much time being afraid of failure, afraid of rejection. But regret is the thing we should fear most. Failure is an answer. Rejection is an answer. Regret is an eternal question you will never have the answer to. “What if…” “If only…” “I wonder what would have…” You will never, never know, and it will haunt you for the rest of your days.
Relationships are built in the silences. You spend time with people, you observe them and interact with them, and you come to know them—and that is what apartheid stole from us: time. You can’t make up for that with an interview, ... (查看原文)
I don't regret anything I've ever done in life, any choice that I've made. But I'm consumed with regret for the things I didn't do, the choices I didn't make, the things I didn't say. We spend so much time being afraid of failure, afraid of rejection. But regret is the thing we should fear most. Failure is an answer. Rejection is an answer. Regret is an eternal question you will never have the answer to. "What if ..." "If only..." "I wonder what would have ..." You will never, never know, and it will haunt you for the rest of your days.

由作者自己读的人物自传最适合audible，如果作者口才还了得，简直不要太有吸引力，Trevor用发生在自己身边的小故事以小见大的描绘了南非的社会大环境，不是黑，也不是白，而是color的，与任何一个群体既相近却又无法完全融合，靠着坚强，独立，自尊的女性抚养长大，用戏谑的口气描绘社会的黑暗面，比如警察，隔离区等等，取得今天的成就 im so happy for him
Before I listened to this audiobook, my whole impression of Trevor Noah is simply a smart and usually a politically-correct comedian. I see him differently than other comedians, who tend to get laughter from sex jokes than something really meaningfuly funny...

The first audio English book that I’ve finished in 2021! It was really a good read , such a painfully funny memoir from Noah Trevor! I thought it probably would be a cliché explaining racial conflicts with wrath, BUT the relaxing tones and great humor dec...

去年冬天每日散步时听完的崔娃自读有声书，本来还在疑惑和英文纸版有无版本或内容上的差异，结果发现豆瓣已经收录有audio版本，真·与时俱进。非常佩服崔娃的妈妈，还是我一直在说的那句话，能不沉溺于个人不幸命运的，都是大英雄。

强烈推荐作者自己的有声书！社会环境和个人生活作为主要故事线，铺开了种族政策下，形形色色的生活状态，主次分明而详略得兼备。心情都在细节里，既有底层人物的挣扎，也有中产阶级的突破，非常精彩。
