Some Of My Best Friends Are White: Subversive Thoughts From An Urban Zulu Warrior
Ndumiso Ngcobo
South African Nonfiction/ Humour

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 nations defining characteristics, its many colourful characters and its myriad mysterious idiosyncrasies.
Ndumiso Ngcobo was born in Mpumalanga Township in KZN. Initially raised on a rural diet of conservative Catholicism and Zulu traditionalism, he now successfully incorporates writing and beer drinking into his daily corporate life.

Is It Coz Iā€™m Black? Ndumiso Ngcobo
Humour/South African non-fiction

Is It Coz Iā€™m Black? is the much-anticipated follow-up to the best-selling Some Of My Best Friends Are White. The urban Zulu warrior, Ndumiso Ngcobo, returns to aim his streetwise eye at a fresh range of typically South African characters and social issues, including obvious targets such as Jacob Zuma, xenophobia and Robert Mugabe, and classic Ngcobo subject matter such as his coloured cousins, black-on-black relationships and Benoni Afrikaners.

The result is another collection of laser-sharp commentary on this wonderful Rainbow Nation of ours, with no regard for political correctness or sacred cows of any size, shape or form ā€“ South African satire at its best. To read Ndumiso's blog, visit http://www.thoughtleader.co.za/silwane.
