Genius. Political. Humane. Hilarious. A much better underrated writer - a late 20thC Wodehouse who laughed at fascists....and everybody else.

Excellent reader. It’s a pity that it’s so heavily abridged. I notice that neither of the South Africa novels are available on Audible. Interesting.

Great satire , wonder how well the books sold in S. Africa ?, it's a humourous reminder of the horrors of colonialism /aparthied rule.

Plot summary Kommandant van Heerden, who has risen to Chief of Police of Piemburg through his family connection with a 'hero' of Boer republicanism rather than merit, is called out to deal with a strange murder case involving the eccentric British spinster, Miss Hazelstone. It appears that Miss Hazelstone has obliterated her black cook 'Fivepence' with a quadruple-barreled elephant gun. A paradoxical anglophile, van Heerden is initially willing to brush the incident under the carpet, until Miss Hazelstone reveals that she and the cook were former lovers (an offence under the Immorality Act) sharing a penchant for transvestism and rubber fetishism. In his panic to stop the truth getting out, van Heerden places Miss Hazelstone under house arrest ... Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riotous_Assembly
