«Reunión tumultuosa» is Tom Sharpe's satirical humour novel, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (197 pages, in Spanish).
In colonial South Africa, the murder of Miss Hazelstone's Zulu cook triggers an utterly absurd police investigation. The novel satirises with corrosive humour the South African regime, its laws, its police and the mentality of the white minority, in a succession of absurd situations and grotesque characters.
Originally published in 1971 as Riotous Assembly, it opens the Piemburg series; translation by J. M. Álvarez Flórez.
Recommended for fans of political satire, acid humour and absurd comedy set in a colonial context.
Thomas Ridley Sharpe was an English satirical novelist, best known for his Wilt series, as well as Porterhouse Blue and Blott on the Landscape, all three of which were adapted for television.
