Blue Eland Foxtrot is a political satire wrapped in an adventure
story. With wit and irony it tracks a group of students battling
their way through 1970s South Africa and the anti-apartheid
struggle of the 1980s. The story brings alive the efforts of its
motley crew to make sense of their own sexualities, histories,
identities and struggles between life’s pleasures and the country’s
horror. Part 1, The Fogstar Project, sees them grappling with their
anarchic actions and desires in context of the developing black
consciousness movement. Part 2, The Ghost Crabs, has them taking
different paths to tackle the crumbling apartheid regime. In his
role as editor / interlocutor, Professor Rambunctious Sithole – who
moves from Professor of Hitler Studies to Marxist Cosmology as the
book progresses –provides references and humorous insights as to
the story’s resonance with the current post-apartheid utopia. In
keeping with the adventure genre, Blue Eland Foxtrot hurtles at a
rip roaring pace.
