{"product_id":"9781920137311","title":"Zuma's Bastard","description":"Zuma's Bastard is the first collection of writing from Azad Essa. The book is based on his widely acclaimed blog, the Accidental Academic, which won Best Political Blog at the 2009 South African Blog Awards for its thought-provoking, and often controversial, writing. \r\n\r\nLike the blog, the book covers a broad array of local and international political and social issues with Azad's trademark wit, insight and attitude, and a refreshing serving of satire on the side. \r\n\r\n25 engaging chapters include revised and updated examples of Azad's best blog entries, plus brand-new material, such as:\r\n\r\nA pub crawl for the president (on President Zuma's state of the nation speech)  \r\nShape without drape: Muslim fashion du jour (on the French burkha ban)\r\nTwo kilos of tenderised Malema, please! (a satirical take on the ANC management of Julius Malema)\r\n\"The blacks have fucked it up, haven't they?'' (an eye-opening encounter in Istanbul) \r\nOne hundred days to being screwed over (on the Football World Cup)","brand":"Azad Essa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47707403845950,"sku":"9781920137311","price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9781920137311_b8c3c599-e37f-4765-850c-f41ed980327d.jpg?v=1707648468","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781920137311","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
