What does Playboy have to do with Nabokov’s infamous novel Lolita
and his obsession with a butterfly? Why is Shrien Dewani looking so
cheap? And what can Ovid's Metamorphosis show us about contemporary
South African society? Imraan Coovadia's Transformations is a
collection of short pieces in the tradition of the essayist:
exciting, probing, intelligent and readable. The essays are on
writing, politics and culture from a South African perspective.
Written with his signature wit, and with subjects ranging from
vuvuzelas to J M Coetzee, Tolstoy to Mbeki, Coovadia's essays cast
a wide net and, like literature and the country, never fail to
surprise.
