Two decades after its conception, this humoristic cartoon series is still South Africa’s best reminder to laugh at itself as a society. Hilarious and iconic, the family of Madam, Eve, Thandi, and Mother Anderson are dysfunctional, chaotic, and an unfailingly satirical reflection of everyday life. Highlighting classic cartoons from the past 20 years, this annual collection is the ultimate collector's item.

"The New Madam & Eve Collection!"--Cover.

Based on South Africa's beloved comic strip, this special volume features Madam & Eve's favorite grandmother, Mother Anderson, as she shares her thoughts on surviving life's twists and turns with a little help from her old friend, gin and tonic. Cantankerous yet warm and witty, Mother Anderson is depicted watching television and fighting with both Eve, her daughter's maid, and the mielie lady--who frequently wakes the combative granny from her naps while selling ears of corn on the street. Entertaining and politically aware, this book provides a cynical and lighthearted perspective on life in South Africa.
