Some Of My Best Friends Are White

R320.00

Some Of My Best Friends Are White is a collection of sharp, satirical essays on contemporary South African issues from the point of view of a successful corporate professional – who just happens to be Zulu.

Crossing various controversial, amusing and downright confusing racial divides, the book delivers a healthy dose of black – and white – humour as it explores some of the rainbow nation’s defining characteristics, its many colourful characters and its myriad mysterious idiosyncrasies.
