“Ngcobo is the expert on the bar chat, the raconteur in the shebeen. But he is not the bore with the beer. He is the one who makes you laugh, even if he is what he describes in his book as ‘an accidental satirist’… His satirical writing works so well because he does not restrain himself” – Gillian Anstey, Sunday Times
“In this much anticipated follow up to his hilarious debut collection Some of My Best Friends Are White, Ndumiso Ngcobo takes aim at a new range of South African characters and social issues including Jacob Zuma, Robert Mugabe and xenophobia. Ngcobo’s lack of fear of holy cows and no-go areas is refreshing and always entertaining” – Push Print
“Ndumiso Ngcobo's humour is universa but be warned: No one and nothing is sacred. And for any coloured readers who felt left out of his last rant, Ngcobo has made a special effort” – James Mitchell, The Star
"Hilarious" - Justice Malala
"Ndumiso Ngcobo is the kind of writer that makes other writers cry. That's because he's one of those guys who was born with it. He doesn’t have to slog away like the rest of the hacks. Ngcobo just writes and what he produces is some seriously funny, achingly smart, stuff" - Tanya Pampalone, Mail & Guardian
"There are no sacred cows for this hilarious satirist… A must-read and a great gift for anyone who has a sense of humour about South Africa" – Women 24
