About this book:

With his signature wit and lucidity, Tim Cohen’s ruminations on the strange rules and the even stranger new rulers of this random world will help you make sense of it all!

Loose Canon is a collection of the very best of Cohen’s writing. He tackles everything from Donald Trump and Cyril Ramaphosa to BEE and Bitcoin. He questions what happened to the millions the Soccer World Cup song ‘Waka Waka’ made, ponders the Afrikaner ‘refugees’ in the United States, and more. Nothing is off limits.
