Pieter-Dirk Uys is arguably South Africa's most famous satirist, AIDS activist and cross-dresser. Here, in his memoirs, he writes with his customary combination of wit and wisdon on such diverse topics as his youth, his early days in theatre, and the birth of Evita Bezuidenhout - his alter ego. He deals frankly with sex, politics, HIV/AIDS and the bizarre twists and turns of contemporary South Africa. It is also a book of journeys, such as Evita Bezuidenhout's road trip through South Africa on the eve of the 1999 election, to educate the populace on how to vote. Needless to say, one hilarious adventure after another unfolds along the dusty country by-roads.
