About the book
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • More than one million copies sold! A “brilliant” (Lupita Nyong’o, Time), “poignant” (Entertainment Weekly), “soul-nourishing” (USA Today) memoir about coming of age during the twilight of apartheid
“Noah’s childhood stories are told with all the hilarity and intellect that characterizes his comedy, while illuminating a dark and brutal period in South Africa’s history that must never be forgotten.”—Esquire
Winner of the Thurber Prize for American Humor and an NAACP Image Award • Named one of the best books of the year by The New York Time, USA Today, San Francisco Chronicle, NPR, Esquire, Newsday, and Booklist
Trevor Noah’s unlikely path from apartheid South Africa to the desk of The Daily Show began with a criminal act: his birth. Trevor was born to 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 earliest 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, steal him away. Finally liberated by the end of South Africa’s tyrannical white rule, Trevor and his mother set forth on a grand adventure, living openly and freely and embracing the opportunities won by a centuries-long struggle.
Born a Crime is the story of a mischievous young boy who grows into a restless young man as he struggles to find himself in a world where he was never supposed to exist. It is also the story of that young man’s relationship with his fearless, rebellious, and fervently religious mother—his teammate, a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence, and abuse that would ultimately threaten her own life.
The stories collected here are by turns hilarious, dramatic, and deeply affecting. Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Trevor illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a moving and searingly funny portrait of a boy making his way through a damaged world in a dangerous time, armed only with a keen sense of humor and a mother’s unconventional, unconditional love.

Best for readers who want candid memoirs about Appalachian life, family survival, faith, and resilience.
Run, Girls
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
Run, Girls is Jenny Cafaro’s memoir of growing up amid addiction, violence, foster care, poverty, and repeated upheaval as she and her sisters try to stay together and break a generational cycle, with a 4.17-star average from more than 2,300 Goodreads ratings. Best for readers who want candid memoirs about Appalachian life, family survival, faith, and resilience.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In this raw and unflinching memoir, Jenny Cafaro lays bare the inspiring story of her harrowing upbringing in the Appalachian foothills of Kentucky. Raised by a determined mother and a violent stepfather, Cafaro brings readers deep into a world marked by poverty, domestic abuse, and emotional scars that run generations deep. She reveals her faith honestly — not from a pulpit, but from the trenches of real life.
From the first page, Run, Girls refuses to sugarcoat. Instead, Cafaro tells the truth—the hard, often heartbreaking truth—through scenes that feel both cinematic and intimate. In one unforgettable moment, a shotgun blast transforms a wall into a flurry of shredded wallpaper—chaos made strangely beautiful, like much of her childhood.
Despite the darkness, what shines through is the resilience of a family fighting to survive. Cafaro’s mother, wielding hammers against rodents and bravery against bullets, emerges as a true warrior figure—gritty, flawed, and unyielding. The children, especially the four daughters, face the unthinkable yet cling to each other and to slivers of hope.
Cafaro’s prose is direct, emotional, and deeply rooted in place. Her Appalachian voice is strong and clear, guiding readers through scenes of violence, grit, and occasional grace. Though often heavy, the memoir is balanced by moments of laughter, love, and a stubborn belief that better days might come.
Run, Girls is not for the faint of heart—but for readers who crave real stories of survival, faith, and perseverance, this memoir delivers.
