Witboy in Africa: Diary of a Troublemaker by Deon Maas is an irreverent, wildly entertaining travel memoir chronicling the adventures of a South African city boy who sets out to discover the heart of Africa. Over 15 years, Deon dodges pirates in Madagascar, mingles with oil thieves in Nigeria, and stares down danger at a Congo roadblock — all while chasing local music legends and the true African experience. Packed with colourful characters, offbeat encounters, and Deon’s trademark humour, this book delivers a raw, cocky, and brutally honest look at life beyond the tourist traps.
