An eagerly awaited album that comes out annually, this year's collection of Zapiro's editorial cartoons shows why this humorist is regarded as the conscience of South Africa. Full of delightful satire, the cartoons are informed by a sense of truth and dignity even while tackling sensitive issues and attacking public figures, particularly those in the ruling party. For news hounds who follow current affairs around the globe, this book provides an education on the issues and a bounty of deft political humor.
