Born to a black mother and a white father, Trevor’s very existence was illegal under apartheid laws, highlighting the challenges of a mixed-race child in a deeply divided society. The book explores themes of resilience, identity, and social justice as Trevor navigates his unique position, facing racism and cultural tensions. Through humorous and poignant stories, he illustrates the strength of his mother and the impact of his environment on his worldview, offering a heartfelt look into his journey of self-discovery.
