Ep 42: Brilliant Biographies
from Hope Book Club Hosted by Hope 103.2
In Episode 42 of the Hope Book Club we explore the personal stories of some famous people and some not so famous. Born a Crime: Stories From a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah. A coming-of-age story, set during the twilight of apartheid and a tribute to a mother who defied the world in which her son was not supposed to exist. The Bookseller at the End of the World by Ruth Shaw. This seemingly innocuous 75 year old bookshop owner, living in a remote part of New Zealand is a world away from the adventurer she once was. She spent most of her life trying to outrun tragedy loss and 4 marriages, but now she shares her story and those of the intriguing customers she encounters. A Funny Life by Michael McIntyre. Michael honestly and hilariously shares the highs and the lows of his rise to the top and desperate attempts to stay there. Its a story of perseverance, dusting yourself off after disaster and making the most of the chances you're given. That’s all in Episode 42 of the Hope Book Club – Because Life’s Just Better with a Book!
