Jozi: The 101 on Africa’s infamous city

A compilation of stories and anecdotes by South African journalists and writers, as well as foreigners who have lived in the city,  From Jo’burg to Jozi: Stories about Africa’s infamous city provides an inside look into the City of Gold.

Find out what Joburg men are really like (and why they’re obsessed with sex and cars), be transported back into “the golden age of black journalism” while working at  The Drum newspaper, discover the allure of being an avid soccer supporter and Pirates’ fan, and learn more about SA’s biggest city that has evolved from Joburg to Jozi, as it is affectionately known today.

Interesting, thought-provoking and somewhat nostalgia-inducing, this is a must-read for any South African.
