Hard to put down
As celebrity autobiogs go this is a well written and entertaining read. Noah’s infectious humour and often gritty reflections keep you glued to the page. At times there is an almost Dickensian flavour as he juggles neat storytelling and characterisation with political and social commentary.
Although somewhat anecdotal (aren’t they all?) this is much more than a string of jokey stories. Above all, it is a tribute to the strong-willed, resourceful mother who, against shocking odds and in defiance of the wretched apartheid system, raised a gifted but very naughty boy who has become a media phenomenon.
Great stuff! I think I can just about forgive him for adopting that half-assed anerican accent now.

Eyecatching and original
Its dividing opinion but no one denies it draws attention - almost like a work of art.
Tough, reflecting and by no means incongruous against white walls, its given an ugly but durable old radiator a long stay of execution.

Timeless classic
Along with To kill a mockingbird and Lord of the flies, a gcse staple and undoubtedly a timeless classic. Very good entry point to Steinbeck’s oevre.
