About the Author

I am a product of a culture in which the matriarch of our family, my grandmother, was the conveyor of its traditions, especially those of the underworld of the amaXhosa women. She understood the ethos of this underworld and articulated its idiom. As a recipient of those legends, I have in this book tried to show how some of them have humorously influenced my interpretation of modern politics in South Africa.
