Trevor Noah
About this listen
En esta galardonada producción de Audible Studios, Trevor Noah cuenta su salvaje historia sobre la mayoría de edad durante el ocaso del apartheid en Sudáfrica. Es una historia que comienza con su madre arrojándolo desde una camioneta en movimiento para salvarlo de una disputa potencialmente fatal con gánsters, luego sigue el camino del comediante hacia el autodescubrimiento a través de episodios conmovedores y cómicos. La virtuosa encarnación de Noah de todos los personajes de su infancia, y su capacidad para interpretar acentos y dialectos sin esfuerzo en inglés, xhosa y zulú, le valieron el premio Audie al mejor narrador masculino en 2018. Sin embargo, la devota e intransigente madre de Noah, expresada por su hijo, se roba el espectáculo.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Story
When two childhood best friends blow up their respective romantic relationships, they make a time-sensitive pact: serial-cheater Chuck cannot sleep with anyone as she attends a three-month-long recovery group for cheaters, while sex-deprived Sofia vows to hook up with as many people as possible before recommitting to monogamy and tying the knot with her long-time fiancé. To keep things interesting, Chuck and Sofia decide to revive a past tradition from their summer camp days—also known as the dawning of sluthood.

Story
The True Story of The Coward Brothers follows two musical brothers – one English, one American, both the illegitimate sons of dubious parentage who may, as they claim to be, "one and half-brothers" – perhaps a reference to the disparity in their height and relative talents.

Story
Campbell Flynn, art historian, professor, and fêted fixture of the literati, always knew that when his life came crashing down, it would happen in public—yet he never imagined that a single year in London would expose so much. He’s never taken other people half as seriously as they take themselves, which is the first of his mistakes. The second is a new project: opportunistic and precisely calibrated to rake in a fortune.

Story
In Made in America, Bryson de-mythologizes his native land, explaining how a dusty hamlet with neither woods nor holly became Hollywood, how the Wild West wasn't won, why Americans say 'lootenant' and 'Toosday', how Americans were eating junk food long before the word itself was cooked up, as well as exposing the true origins of the G-string, the original $64,000 question, and Dr Kellogg of cornflakes fame.

Me gustó el libro, el narrador no tanto
Chumel desde mi punto de vista es muy dramático al narrar el libro y hubiera preferido una voz más neutra

Conmovedor y divertido
Es un gran libro autobiografíco de Trevor Noah, aunque por momentos parece la biografía de su Madre, una mujer extraordinaria. Fue muy divertido y tambien excesivamente conmovedor.

Fumny and deep.
A very touching autobiography. Excellent Spanish interpretation as well. Hopefully Trevor continues to write and Chumel also goes exploring with other titles to voice, he's a natural.

Muy interesante historia de Trevor Noah.
Para un Ánglo que habla el español como segunda lengua, puedo entender este libro en español. Es muy interesante aprendiendo su niñez con su familia en Africa del Sur.

Muy recomendable.

Muy bueno
Me encanta este tipo de historias, se puede aprender mucho de ellas, sensibilizan de una forma muy profunda, a la vez que mezclan humor, sarcasmo e ironia de una forma inteligente. La narración de Chumel le agrega un buen toque.
