Maid in SA: 30 Ways to Leave Your Madam

It is a quirky, lighter look at one of South Africa's most important, yet most overlooked, relationships: that between a domestic worker and her madam. In this book you'll find the women in your life your mothers, your sisters, your cousins, your friends and yourself.

  • There are two types of white madams, the poor-white madam and the liberal middle-class madam.
  • There are no poor African madams.
  • If your helper has a colourful name, she must be a Zimbabwean.
  • Having a Malawian helper is never about the Malawian helper, darling.
