Port Elizabeth reflects the influence of the largest single migration of Europeans to South Africa in its early history, when some 5,000 British settlers landed at Algoa Bay in 1820. The town, which became a thriving port, boasts an extraordinary density, and diversity, of Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian buildings and monuments. This satirical novel explores a nightmare scenario in the post-apartheid Azania of the future, against the backdrop of a city besieged by politically correct demagogues bent on destroying the Nelson Mandela Metro's rich early colonial heritage.
