Kafka meets the world of Brexit in a bitingly funny political satire from Ian McEwan That morning, Jim Sams, clever but by no means profound, woke from uneasy dreams to find himself transformed into a gigantic creature. Jim Sams has undergone a metamorphosis. In his previous six-legged existence he was ignored or loathed, but in his new incarnation he has woken up to discover he is the most powerful man in Britain: the Prime Minister. His mission: a nationalist revival, with or without Europe. Nothing must get in his way: not the opposition, nor the dissenters within his own party. Not even the rules of parliamentary democracy. In this bitingly funny, Kafkaesque satire, Ian McEwan engages with scabrous humour a very recognizable political world and turns it on its head.

In the early 80s we were evaluating a new cockroach control product in a high-rise housing project. Cockroach populations were high even though the apartment we were in was squeaky clean. The three small children that shared a twin bed there looked different to me but I wasnt sure why. Dr. Frishman pointed out that they didnt have any eye brows or lashes and then he exposed thousands of roaches hiding behind the head board. Some things you never forget. In my view, having Paul Bello, an industry expert himself with years of practical experience, team up with Dr. Cockroach makes The Cockroach Combat Manual II a must read because cockroach control is deserving of our best efforts.

It is late in 2004 and in South Africa some things haven't changed all that much, except the narrow traffic island down the middle of Adderley street in Cape Town is now a bustling squatter camp. A black extremist group is digging a tunnel towards the parliament buildings. The principal concern of an old National Party MP is the surgical rehabilitation of his collapsed sexual undercarriage. A highly placed secretary in the official political opposition is by day a grotesque little bureaucrat, by night a winsomely beautiful transvestite. A long forgotten political prisoner languishes in a dark cell, deep underground. Over the decades of his incarceration he has crossbred and trained a stable of giant racing cockroaches.
