Question

How does the subplot involving the mulberry tree anecdote enhance Trevor Noah’s memoir?

Answer 1

The mulberry tree anecdote reinforces the sense of disconnection and lack of companionship Trevor felt in his childhood.

We can arrive at this answer because:

• In this anecdote, Trevor says that children in the community formed groups of friends to look for fruit in a mulberry tree.
• However, he could not be part of these groups and had to seek the fruits alone if he wanted to.
• This is because he was not accepted in the community, for being someone very different.

This story shows how Trevor could not fit into either the white communities or the black communities, as he was not seen as someone who belonged to either of these two groups and it reminds him how much he was lonely and without companions during his childhood.
