Book Choice

On this show, among other things, in a bit of a mad experiment, we have three reviewers ( Vanessa Levenstein, Shirley De Kock Gueller and Twanji Kalula) ALL reviewing the exact same book, Son of a Whore, by Herman Lategan. As well as fiction and non-fiction reviews and a whopper of an author interview.

Join 3 of South Africa's top international publishers and South Africa's number one book seller, for a look at what they've got coming out in the next couple of months.

There is something special about this show. All 8 book reviews feel prescient and interesting, and the interview, well it’s about a book that has a dog in it named God, so maybe it’s that. Tune in and hear for yourself.

Book Choice is broadcast every alternating Tuesday of each month presented by Paige Nick. While you’re munching your lunch or driving the myriad motorways, you’ll hear all that’s best in books. Cape Town’s top book reviewers will entertain and inform you as they cheerfully chat about the newest and nicest fiction and non-fiction on current book shelves. You love author interviews? Well, we line up those for your pleasure and leisure too. You want an easy-peasy competition each month with good prizes? All there, prettily planned for your lovely listening. Do join us for your delectation… for your entertainment… for your information.

Coming up on today’s show, Beverley Roos Muller reviews a new release, Daisy de Melker: Hiding Among Killers in the City of Gold by Ted Botha, published by Jonathan Ball. Interestingly this book was recently launched at the women’s jail on constitution hill, which is where Daisy de Melker served out her sentence. A launch that sounds as fascinating as the book itself.
