Verdict: carrots!
It’s been an incredible year. We’ve had the World Cup Final Draw, the Caster Semenya gender test debacle, the best year in Springbok rugby history – and Eskom as our hardy annual – and that’s just the last couple of months.
To see the full complexity of the year in all its layers, which by the way included the formation of a brand new political party and a general election, you need look no further than the various annual collections of newspaper cartoons from South Africa’s best-loved cartoonists, on sale at this time.
There’s the perennial Christmas stocking fillers of Zapiro and Madame and Eve, with a late, but very welcome, flurry from our own Dov Fedler for a change.

Nice to see cartoons getting this kind of critical attention. Viva satirists!
