"Lerato Tshabalala first came to our attention in 2011 with her ’Urban Miss’ column in the Sunday Times, and since then she has by turns entertained, exasperated, amused and confounded her fans
and critics alike. Now, with her first book, she looks set to become the national institution she deserves to be. With her customary wit and keen insight into social, political and cultural
affairs, Lerato shines a bright - and controversial - light on South African society and the quirky ways of the country. Sheis brutally honest about her experiences as a black South African in
post-apartheid Mzansi, and no subject is too sacred for her to explore: annoying car guards, white-dominated corporate South Africa, cultural stereotypes, economic and racial inequality, and
gender politics, among many other topics, come under her careful - and often laugh-out-loud - scrutiny. The Way I See It is written for people who are hungry for a book that is
thought-provoking, funny, irreverent and truly South African all at thesame time. It is light but full of depth: like a supermodel with an MBA!"--Back cover.
